Acoustic archtop bridge question

Question

I need to replace the bridge on a very old arch top guitar, and i was wondering if the metal gibson style tune-o-matic type floating bridge (meant for electric hollow bodies) would be suitable for an acoustic archtop.

Answer 1

Probably not.  However, check out the link to Stewart-MacDonald's selection of acoustic archtop bridges.  They probably have something you can use.  Good luck.
