Graphtech LB63

Has anyone used one of these?  I'm looking at doing a Warmoth VIP build and am wondering if this bridge will work with any of the standard bridge routes?

Graphtech claim it is a direct replacement for the Floyd Rose Original...
I have no reason to doubt them, so go for the FRO rout  :headbang1:

Any thoughts on whether the typical control cavity routes would have enough room to hold a battery and the associated piezo acoustic preamp module for one of these?

 

[Funky Phil]

If you go for a rear routed body, the control cavity is BIG!

 

[variaxman]

Yeah, it will be rear routed (VIP body) for S-S-S pickups.  I think the cavity for that is probably pretty big because of the 3 pots and the switch.  I'm still a little ways off from pulling the trigger on this as I want to think through wiring and switching options before ordering.  But once I do, I'll report back my results.

Thanks,
John
