I just bought a Kramer Artist 650G but the bridge is missing.
Does anybody knows a type or a name of a bridge that could fit without making new holes?
The overall dimensions of the bridge are: 11x37x79.5mm
string spacing left to right: 56mm (2 3/16") and the distance between the first and the third mounting hole on the bridge is 46mm and the distance between the holes is 23mm.
Is there anyone out there that sells one?I want it!

you might want to try greg bailey. I think he's been making parts for people that are missing something from their beans.

There is a replacement neck at "stewmac.com" called a Toploading Hardtail Bridge that is close to the shape and size of the stock 650G bridge. The screw holes do not quite match up, but the old ones are covered up. At $20.05 they are a bargain.

You can try "Petilloguitars.com" for he has aluminum necked guitar parts for sale there that he has left over from the time he used to work at Kramer.

Thanks Rik , i know about this bridge at StewartMac http://i10.tinypic.com/4qdcj5v.jpg
The problem is that the holes i have to drill for this will be only 1,64mm away from the old so there is a possibility to join the two holes in one and the screws may swimm in.
I've allready talked to Mr Petillo and i'm waiting for a reply.
Thanks again!

"Plastic Wood" the old holes and redrill. I've used the stuff on strap buttons that had a hole the size of a pencil. Should be stronger than new.
