Description: Authorized Dealer BRAND NEW BRAND: Hipshot | SKU: 10700 Product Description A few years before they joined The Byrds, best buds Gene Parsons and Clarence White were at a recording session in California. While tracking leads, Clarence would bend his B string from behind the nut to evoke the pedal steel, a technique limited to just the open position. Clarence turned to Gene and said “I wish I had a third hand!” After the session, Gene’s gears were turning. Clarence offered up his Telecaster to be hollowed out and filled with a contraption made of pedal steel linkages. The first ever StringBender® was born, and in Clarence’s hands, country guitar was forever changed. Nearly 60 years later, Hipshot now proudly produces the latest iteration of the StringBender to Gene’s exacting specifications. Instead of discrete linkages, the integrated system features components precision-mounted to a plate. This sheds nearly half the weight of the original design, simplifies installation, and creates a smoother, more consistent bending operation. Now you too, can have a third hand behind the nut and leave your audience gaping with amazement, saying “Sounds like he's got extra fingers!” All components are precision CNC machined Easy travel adjustment accessibility via the back plate Routing templates are available separately Professional installation recommended Copyright © 2024 Guitar Audio | All Rights Reserved
