Fitting a Kahler 7330 to my FR guitar

Jesstaa · 10-24-2009, 08:04 PM

I've decided I'm gonna buy a Kahler 7330 non trem bridge and an adapter plate and install it on my guitar which came with a Floyd.

My only problem is the only adapter plates that fit without being huge, are just too small, so what I'm planning on doing is screwing down a piece of wood level to the top of my body inside the front part of the cavity (Where the bridge pins go down) then screwing a smaller adapter plate onto that.

I'll reverse that so the smaller part goes over the smaller part of the cavity. That should work right? And any tips on how I can do this easily.

I think I've already posted a thread like this a while ago, but I can't remember.

Doesn't look like fun, Jess!

What is that? My first thought was a Jackson Rhoads, but the control plate looks off to me.
