Maybe not the style you are looking for, but doesn't require any body work to the guitar.

The Duesenberg Les Trems are far cheaper than the Stetsbars.
The Stetsbars don't require any bodywork either (hence the 'stet' part of the name - keep it original), and they are very good indeed, one of the best trems out there, but they aren't very 'subtle' in their looks.
Airwick, I have a Les Trem and am about to order another. I have 3 different versions of Bigsby, couple of strats, a floyd and a Jazzmaster style and I prefer the Les Trem over them all.

I have finished this build but i have decided to not share the building process (I made many mistakes with finishing and wiring) and i've passed it on to one of my friends and i'm going to be lurking on the forums to see what tips i can gather and yes I realise it's the second time i've done this and i promise the next thing i build will be shared and hopefully successful! ( I ended up keeping the tune o matic bridge )
I got my Les Trem through Rockinger in Germany. btw, Feast Watson black wood stain is pretty dammned black and works under Tru -Oil just fine.
