I've had one of those types of guitars, not that model exactly, although I used to want that model with flower pickguard to turn into a lap steel (not necessarily the 2 pu version and hardtail would have been fine).

As for that bridge, it has 2 or 3 screws on the bottom, so if the intonation is not good, you can remove the screws and have the bridge floating. Or move the screw positions.

man it's light as hell.. i went back and played a few parts of my bowie cover with it... it makes some noise for sure.. weird harmonics and incidentals.. plays really good.. the tuners are hard as fuck to turn on a couple of strings but stays in tune well so far with this bridge.. never had a bridge like this before.. best part is the hound dog taylor vibe.. i almost wish it didn't play this good and the action wasn't this nice because i'd make it a slide guitar.. it just plays too good to set it up with super high action.. maybe later
