It looks great, but Lew, Lew, Lew, lose the knobs! :x :P
Does it work well?
Good question, no one told me stringing a Bigsby was more annoying than JedWard. I used a capo to keep tension.
All of the strings work perfectly well, except the damn A string. I don't know whats gone on with it- it will not intonate for love or money and has a dead muted tone. I'm hoping that I was either too rough on it when installing it and unravalled it a bit at ball end or it's a one off dead string (likely?).

+1. Sorry Lew, it looks GREAT apart from those knobs... are they pink? Is that my old neck pick up in there?
Yep, sounds really good, perhaps a little dark. I've got a mod for it on the furthest tone pot that's basically a coiltap but you can blend and choose how much you want tapped.
There's a Miracle Man in the bridge, huge kudos to Feline - I sent him a pm literally saying 'get me the right bkp for this guitar', and he did. It's perfect for the guitar and the vht. The mids are really pronounced but in a really smooth way. Prob my fav bkp so far.
as above, the pink knobs are a no-no :(
btw, where are you lot getting these pin-up girl stickers/transfers from? - I'd like one for my Tele (preferably a transfer).
I use these guys, Ian

I should have got green bobbins so the pink didn't stand out so much :p It needs some light relicing too - not sure I want to attempt that, though.
EDIT: New A string and all is well! 8)
