Hipshot Standard String Bending System with B-Bender and Drop-D Lever, Chrome

Short and sweet- you want to be able to bend strings to achieve pedal steel like sounds on your electric guitar. There are a lot of great options out there, and this is certainly one of them. The difference? The Hipshot B bender is super easy to install, setup and use. I am handy with tools, and I was able to install this in my Esquire parts guitar in about ten minutes, and was happily bending notes to my hearts' content!Highly recommend this product and this seller!

Loved the hip action as it still keeps your hands free, and had so much fun I got the G lever to add onto it (not pictured - this is the item as described as I originally installed it). SUPER fun, and sounds great! Feels very stable, though I did go ahead with the two side screws as well as the endpin screw. I would recommend straplocks just given the direction of movement.

It was brand new and works awesome

Easy install on parts telecaster, if you know some basic metal work. Otherwise let a guitar technician install it for you. I had to notch the bridge plate for low E string and 3rd G string. You will also need to botch each saddle to reain string path.Sounds like a lot of work but really not too bad. It's as easy as cutting butter to operate, which brings me to one caveat. Need to be careful while not using it because it is easy to activate with normal playing movement. Just remember it's there!
