I haven't seen any conversion screws, that would allow to mount a something like a Nashville bridge on the PE.

If you don't like the roller bridge, you will have to pull the studs and install matching ones for your new bridge.

Sorry if this has been addressed - I didn't read that it has. I may have missed it.

Could the OP post another picture of the bridge or confirm that one side of the bridge has a Phillips head side, while the other is rounded?

If so, the bridge is probably like that of my Aria Pro II PE Black N' Gold. I recently got it and a few of the saddle screws were starting to strip. In order to remove them, I had to hold the rounded side of the screw - opposite of the Phillips side, with pliers and unscrew the round nut. Once that came off, I could unscrew the main saddle screw (with the phillips head). I replaced all the saddle screws with some new ones from my hardware store.

I also used some penetrating oil on the old saddle screws to get them to come out.
