No, the Kahler 2700 trem post spacing is different.

Thanks JG. Btw, Sad Wings of Destiny is a classic and one of my favorites !!

And even if you move the posts you're going to have to route the body if the trem is recessed as the 2700 has a completely different shape. Absolutely killer unit though.

Yep. Nice Trem, but far from a drop in replacement for a JT-6. In addition to what´s been said, IIRC the mounting distance is also like 1/16" shorter or longer as well, but not too sure on that, been too long since I had one in my hands...
