[kj] Look Familiar?

[Christof hamille]

The thing is all of the reissues came with a bigsby.  And traditionally 295s 
did not come with the bigsby.  It was an aftermarket item by the payers.  If 
I remember correctly the only Gibson to come stock with a Bigsby was the 
Chet Atkins electric model and then later Gibson made their own version to 
save cost.
There is better things to be knowledgeable about I know I know
