what about something like this with just the one wire? How does a wire job like this work?

I agree with uethanian, I would not put that bridge on an acoustic. You need a bridge that will transfer lots of sound to the soundboard. Also, I wouldn't buy it from that seller when you can get it here for a third the price: Link Removed

I'm waiting on how I'm going to approach the bridge until i know what kinda pickup I'm using.

if I used an ABG predrilled wooden bridge would I have problems with string span on a narrower guitar neck?

after nine months of shelving this project to plan another I had a great(I think) idea. why do a traditional acoustic bridge when I can do something like this:

these are parts lined up from my next build so I'm not using these parts on it, but it gave me the idea. the tailpiece and the separate saddles could divide the stress of the strings (maybe) at it arguably looks cooler than a regular bridge, too.

I will obviously cover the bare wood spotand I'll probly have to make the saddle myself since using part of a tune-o-matic bridge pictured seems cost inefficient

see any problems?
