You're welcome, Tom.  Thanks for giving me the idea about a Rick bridge just using the 'footprint' of the original.  I'm working on similar for the POS (there, I said it) 3 point.  Getting a '77 TBird has proved that to me beyond a shadow of a doubt.

I think I still have one in the junk-pile in the shed post rebuilding my PC if you are looking for one...? The saddles had to be notched to keep the string spacing right but all the parts were there last I looked...

Let us know if you come up with something. I would eventually like to go back to a Schaller roller bridge on my main Ric.
