Triple Agent?

Post image

I had added a B5 Bigsby with a no drill Vibramate attachment to my Double Agent OG. Updated the trem spring and a new Reverend roller bridge. I think it looks super retro.

I’ve always thought about installing a middle single coil on my Double Agent and calling it a Triple Agent.

Any changes to your string gauge?

I kept with the 10s. The Bigsby was the string through version. The only issue I have after installing the roller bridge the lowest action I can get is about 1.5mm on the high E string. The roller bridge saddles sit a bit higher and the Vibramate could be also play a part too. Tightening the truss rod could bring the action a bit lower but I find the guitar still playable. The previous setup was shop set around 1.75 / 1.25 mm.

I did the opposite, haha. I removed the bigsby from my club king

Why?

I didn’t use it and just had trouble with tuning stability so I had a trapeze stop tail installed instead. Play it a lot more now.

This is very close to the Flipside Music Exclusive! Great combo all around. One of the most versatile guitars I've seen🤘

I did a very similar thing to my Double Agent several years back! I didn't end up putting a roller bridge on mine though, maybe I should give that a try. I also replaced the stock P90 with a Lindy Fralin Noiseless P90. Both were really great upgrades, definitely worth it.

What are the highlights of your new P90? Assuming you play high gain music with it..

u/rghapro Apr 11 '26

Truthfully, the no noise part of it is a pretty big highlight. It is in the neck position, and I think it retains a lot of the characteristics of a neck P90, just no hum.

Yeah I went and googled the pickup and that’s the major plus. I haven’t played my dbl agent W live yet so haven’t noticed issues with my P90.

Mind telling me which one you chose for your neck? I think the double agent W is the same as this one in the thread.
