Hipshot B Bender with Drop D in Chrome

With only a slight movement of your guitar, the Hipshot B Bender accurately bends your second string ''B'' up a whole step''C#'' without interfering with your hand technique. Hipshots finger lever instantly lowers your 6th string ''E'' to low ''D'', effectively extending your bass range and giving you new chord voicings and licks otherwise impossible.

Have you ever wondered why it is so difficult to get the lead guitar part to The Eagles “Peaceful Easy Feeling” to sound right? Well, the answer is that it was written for a B-Bender guitar!

The original B-Bender mechanisms were designed by Gene Parsons and Clarence White of The Byrds and were fitted inside a Fender Telecaster.

Fender were licensed by Parsons/White to mass produce the B-Bender Telecaster model and you can have yours today for a mere £1,700 or so. Alternatively, if you already have a Telecaster-type guitar, you can buy and have fitted the Parsons/White system for around £400.

The “Standard” Hipshot B Bender that we supply also incorporates the Drop-D mechanism which you can remove this from the device if not needed.
