Vibrato/Whammy Bar on Epiphone Les Paul
Many thanks for the reply!
Well we have woodworkers in the family, that would not be the problem, but it sounds quite scarry when I see the amount of wood you have to remove for a Floyd ... Otherwise, I've checked out the Vibramate, it looks like a great kit, but the price of it and a Bigsby is more than the actual value of the guitar (300 euros). I think the Stetsbar would be a great solution; the only problem I can't find it in France / Germany ..

Vibrato/Whammy Bar on Epiphone Les Paul
Hi
I’m currently playing an Epiphone Les Paul Standard I bought a year ago. I’m very happy with it, but I would like to mount a tremolo on it. The thing is it’s an Epiphone, and I don’t know if Vibratos for Gibsons are compatible with Epis.
I would preferably mount a Bigsby (B3/B5/B7?) . I’ve also heard about Floyd Roses.
What do you think? Had someone done this before on an Epi? And what’s best?
Are there any other "good" tremolos for les paul which are a bit cheaper?
Thanks a lot for helping Greetings Yann
