Hey Skyflash Hope I'm not too late to be of assistance, I'ts EASY----- Just route the main hole for the trem, but a little bit deeper, say, about 3/16", (the thickness of the trem body/plate) depending on how low you have to go. Then sit the trem in position and draw around with a pencil and there's your routing guide !!!!!! That's how I did mine about 15 years ago, worked fine, and still working !!!! The top of the trem body/plate is set flush to the top of the guitar. I had to do this because I had set the neck in my new guitar with too-little angle, and didn't want to CUT the neck off and start again !!!!!
