Low Profile Floyd Rose on a angled pocket FR body?

Hello!
I'm thinking of changing my Schaller Floyd Rose with a Ibanez Low Pro Edge or another *LOW PROFILE* Floyd tremolo (I consider Ibanez LowPro great, the better but this is only my opinion).
I have a doubt: I would install this LowPro tremolo on a Warmoth body for no-recessed floyd rose with angled pocket.
Everything ok or I might have problems with this *low profile* tremolo?
(What I fear is the size of the lower part of these LOWPRO Floyd)

Won't work because the string saddles go under the baseplate.  And that would rest on top of your Wamoth body. (actually the saddle spring would)  Which would render the fine tuning screws useless and cause the bridge to angle forward too far.  You would have to have the body routed for a recess.
 
:doh:
It means that I'll keep the traditional Schaller on my warmoth  :occasion14:
Thank you
