This looks like the original stock bridge to me... What makes you think it's a Kahler?  ???

Ah, it was the general shape, and I parsed the cable as the whammy bar.

Carry on. Nothing to see here, folks.  :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[

FWIW that's what I thought when I first saw it too.

Gosh, that bass is freakin' sweet.

Looks a bit like the bassist from The Hold Steady - Is it?

Summer, 1985:
I had my '65 Burgundy Mist Strat, and in walks in the Bass Player from the 2nd band for the night...with a Burgundy Mist '65 Jazz Bass.
Matching peghead and all.

He runs over excitedly to show me the KAHLER BASS TREMOLO he just had installed.

My heart sank.
