I am tempted

I want to clearly be on record in saying that I think Kahlers on Les Pauls are a fantastic combination. With that in mind, why am I thinking of putting this,
1972 Gold Bigsby off a L5, on my guitar to replace my Kahler?

While I do love gold hardware on guitars, this would look a bit odd on mine, but still...

Actually, I don't even know if this would fit my guitar, it was meant for a different guitar. The thing about this model is it seems it would cover up my Kahler cavity pretty well.

Not a fan Bigsbys here, I do love Kahlers and Floyds though. Stick with the Kahler, it hides much less of the guitar and is much more functional and stays in tune!

Ha! I can't see me doing it, but tempted nonetheless.

Don't say that even in jest, those Bigsbys are scary stuff!
