I would highly recommend the "bar" that typically does the B. Palm pedals are a trick to use, as they aren't hands free. I don't care for how they interrupt my picking hand's normal style.

i did the Hipshot "addition" thing to my 97 P/G tele years ago, opting to use the P/G bender for the B as intended, slid the "hip" lever over for the G string, and the palm lever over for the A string...works just great ...i'll try to get a pic of it in here but no promises; my computer is pretty ill right now...





i'm amAZED..!!!...picture showed up..!!!
