There some schools of thought that praise the bigsby performs better if you keep the strings over the front bar, that being said as long as the break angle ends up lower than the bridge. Their thoughts are that reducing the break angle (at the bridge) helps tuning stability and returning to pitch easier. I'm waiting on mine to arrive and will be trying both approaches.Originally Posted by Simon Barden
You do know that the strings are supposed to go under the round bar at the front of the Bigsby? It's there to give you a decent break angle for the strings over the saddle.
