Ordinarily I'm all for doing your own work on your own guitar, but unless you've done major work to a guitar before, I'd take it to a good luthier. Even a minor alignment error and you've got holes in your guitar that will ruin any resale value it has. That being said, if you're willing to take the risk, a bigsby shouldn't be too hard to install if you've replaced a bridge, shimmed a neck or slotted your own nut before. It's all about getting it located and mounted correctly the first time.
