This guitar was not made as an exact copy. It was made with the BigsbyExtra Standard guitar in mind. It's the same model that was used by Grady Martin.
This guitar won the first price, for electric guitars, at the Dutch Guitar Builders Meeting in 2014 and it was chosen as the most beautiful guitar in
2014 by the members of the Dutch Gitaarnet Forum.
