so it would be nice to install a vibrato unit on my 63 but i doubt a b5 will fit as it would be slightly too large
in saying that does anyone know of any top mount vibrato units that are slightly small with and without the bridge?

This?

the b3 b5 wont fit on a 63 cause it doesn't have a big enough ass for it to work

(I haven't used the GFS unit above, but I've read plenty reports that it's a perfectly fine unit. Not as nice a trem feel as a typical Bigsby, but perfectly fine functionality.)
