V7 Standard Kit

Note: Vibramate V7 is designed for the Bigsby "Original" B7 Vibrato ONLY and will not work with other variations such as the "Licensed" B70 Model or the Import B700 Model. Make sure you have the correct Bigsby Vibrato for proper installation of the Vibramate Kit.

Now you can install a Bigsby Vibrato on your Les Paul style guitar without drilling any holes. The Vibramate V7-LP Model Mounting Kit is designed for a Bigsby B7 Original Vibrato and will fit most Standard Carved Top Les Paul Style guitars with Stop Tailpiece and Tune-O-Matic Bridge. The kit installs in minutes with the included hardware and eliminates the need for drilling holes in your instrument. Vibramate V7-LP Kit includes the Vibramate V7 "Dogbone" mounting plate with felt-pads on the bottom for a soft touch to the top of your guitar. The Vibramate V7-LP kit also includes our felt-padded Tailpiece Plate for mounting the Hinge-Plate of the Bigsby B7 to the Strap Pin hole at the lower end of your guitar. Vibramate automatically positions the Bigsby Vibrato in the proper orientation and makes a very clean finished appearance with great performance. The Vibramate Quick Mount Kit includes both Imperial and Metric threaded mounting hardware for either US or Import model guitars. Be sure to follow the mounting instructions to prevent damage to your instrument. Available in un-plated aluminium (to match the same finish of the USA Bigsby units) or gold-plated aluminium.

Step-by-step fitting instructions can be found here.

A note for people using left handed Bigsby B7 units: Vibramate use this standard Vibramate V7 mounting kit for a Left Hand Bigsby B7 vibrato but a modification to the actual B7 unit is required. The unit requires a hole under where the spring sits and needs to also be opened up slightly into a slot shape to line up with the Vibramate V7 plate. Once everything is installed on the guitar you never see the slot since it is hidden under the Bigsby arm. Please refer to the third photo for more information.
