First Act was actually a custom shop that made very high end guitars, and had some cool designs. Unfortunately they decided to use some of those designs to sell cheap import guitars to Walmart. The cheap Walmart stuff ruined their brand identity, and they went out of business. They have since sold the name to someone else who now only makes cheap toy guitars for kids.
That, I didn’t know. I just knew them for the cheap Walmart beginner guitar sets :/
It is nice to have options. That is a very nice option!Changed my mind. Seems I can't play just one guitar all night. I must be neurotic or something.

How you digging the Stetsbar? Been curious on those
I have two still...one on the SG in my avatar, and one on the V in my sig pic. I like them very much. Once they’re all set up with the guitar, a decently cut nut, and I prefer to use locking tuners with them, they hold up pretty well. Tuning stability is good...the D string can bind a bit on the Gibson 3x3 headstock, but once you fret a note it usually falls right back in tune. I set them to drop pitch only, so that I may droptune at will without worries of the whole thing going south(or north) like with a Floyd. Works for me. Will drop over an octave if set up properly.
Very cool! I was looking at one on my Tele when i was rebuilding it. Still might make a change to it sometime!
My V was a husk purchase, so it came to me with no bridge or tailpiece...setting it up with a Stetsbar in nickel finish wasn’t much more expensive than a fancy bridge and tailpiece set up....maybe an extra $70-$80 and I had a trem.
Awesome! I might seriously look at trying one of these out. Surely dont want to route out any of my guitars but this eliminates that
It's a partscaster of the highest order.
