It always takes a little while to get used to where the pull happens as in where the guitar hangs on your left shoulder.
Just wait until you let somebody "jam" at a gig without telling them. That's really fun.

Well I thought I should update this review. I have had this thing for four months now and I have really gotten use to it. It is a great bender and for the price (installed for $500), it is an unbeatable deal.
I did have a couple of issues with it. One was that the B-string kept unwinding at the ball end of the string. It happened seven times, and then I realized there was a tiny burr in the bender tunnel. That had to be there when it left the shop, so -points to B&W for that,but it was a super easy fix.
The other issue was that I kept breaking the B-string. Again, the lip of the B-Bender tunnel, where the B-String comes out to go the the saddle was sharp. That had to leave B&W that way, so another - for that. But still, a very easy fix and I haven't broke a string since.
Now that is running perfectly, it is my number one guitar. I LOVE having a B-bender and not just for country stuff. It is a really cool thing. If you are thinking about getting one installed on your guitar, consider B&W Benders.

Very cool you have assimilated the b bender into your style.Not great that there were some problems,but from my POV,their price was reasonable,and the turn over quick,so I'd be inclined to give them a pass-especially since you were equipped to sort it out(twice).it's your money,not mine though.

Walt, I am MORE than happy with B&W and would order another from them in a heartbeat. The issues were very easy to fix. I just did not expect to have to deal with that from the start. Still, he helped figure it all out. They were great to work with. By the way, they buy Mexican Tele's and put their benders in them and then sell the whole thing for like $700-$800. You can't beat that! |

I just had my tele done by Forrest Lee, I love it! I just sent the body to save on shipping, he did the work in 5 days. I should have done it years ago.
