Somewhere I have a photo of Buddy Geco playing his Pierce.

I think a Pierce would be a fun little project, like a Fender 400, but nothing much more.

Yes, this is the second or the third listing for the guitar. Maybe BG will reply to this thread?

Well I am no expert but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night and while there I read the Bigsby book so if what I read is correct I think the success of the Bigsby Vibrato business is what put PA out of the steel guitar business!

I love the utter simplicity of the mechanics--I'd probably buy it just for that reason.
