Looks like a guitar a Flintstone designed for a Jetson. Sounded hollow when you played it. Nice! 😤

I bought a REAL Billy Bo in Cadillac green a few years back, and honestly was let down by it. It had tiny frets and the neck pickup squealed ....really sucked for a $3500 guitar. Just ordered a copy...hopefully its a decent guitar. For that money I can do whatever I want to it..

@Wesley Hockemeyer. I have put a bigsby on mine now probably a year ago. And it has really helped the action. But there projects. I bought a Jackson pc1 copy and it needed a lot of work. But as far the Billy Bo. I was really surprised be how it was constructed. Hope the vid helps you man!

You sir are a liar. Nobody who can afford to buy a Billy Bo would ever buy some cheap a$$ unbranded copy from a drop shipper in China. You have never even played a real BB, much less owned one. Sorry, but you're the jacka$$ that decided to publish another lie on YT for the world to see. Doesn't matter nobody else knows, I know you're a liar and so do you. Chump! :)

@@austing1580 mine was gretsch orange and supposed to come with the gretsch western frets like the Roundup and Gretsch G brand. It seemed almost too good to be true for the price of 365.00. I have a theory that most Gretsches are made in one big China factory. The only difference is the hardware. I think they are basically the same but with a huge markup

@@randallscott6 I remember seeing those. Seen one on ebay yesterday come to think of it. If you ever decide to buy another one just look at the reviews on the seller. I try to stay away from people that doesnt have a lot of transaction history or a good review. And I believe in your theory. I believe the quality is a lot better on the expensive ones but for a 3rd of the money I'd be happy with a little bit of work being put into one.

This shape is the silhouette of a slinky woman in an off the shoulder dress with tailfin-shapes over her legs. Even the A-LIE-xpress Goudry Chiguitar version is hot af as is, with minor guit-teck adjustments. 2023 = came with TOM bridge! Easily smoothed fret ends and fret levelling. Intonation was already perfect. Easily stripped and repainted the underside of the clear plastic pickguard and access covers to glittery gold. Mysteriously has f-tron sized/sounding PUPs. (Artec?) My pronoun is Ya'll.
