Thanks for the vid!

The B-bender is on so many tracks. Jimmy Page used one on a ton on Zep tunes.

My dad playing "Sweetheart of the Rodeo" by the Byrds constantly when I was a kid forever ingrained the B-Bender sound in my consciousness!

I saw him and Clarence White in that classic Byrds line-up back around back in the Stoneage.

LOVE B Benders.

Anyone ever compare them to palm benders of the Hipshot ones?

[zenmindbeginner]

Bloody incredible video, I've never seen one in person let alone have the history of how it started explained to me! WOW!

Peter Stroud Live with Sheryl Crow with a Palm Setup. Its a G&L Guitar which he still tours with.

Very interesting! This internet thing sure is cool.

Was familiar with the B-Bender, but never actually seen the "guts". Fairly sophisticated mechanical linkage, actually...

A couple of B-bender Telecasters have come through the local music store over the years. Those things are heavy, but fun to play with.

I've always heard and liked that sound and never new it was a B-bender.

Thanks, cool video

These are fun to play. I have a Fender with one in it from the factory. It might be for sale if anyone is interested let me know.
