My question is, have any of you ever tried to tack the bridge in place on one of these?

i can't answer your question, but aren't those liverpool pickups sweet!? i recently put a set in my AS73 and i couldn't be much happier, especially considering how dirt cheap they were.

the concept of tracking the bridge for a more solid feel makes sense, but i haven't had any experience with this, sorry.

No but try finding a really fine piece of leather that ISN'T thick. but it so it fits under the moveaable bridge exactly. Glue it on that...and the leather against the guitar won't slide.
No it does not kill your tone.
