Hi Youngson,
I have several guitars like yours... The bridge is a free floating bridge..... Without strings on the guitar, the bridge should fall off the guitar.... The strings are the only thing suppose to hold the bridge down...
Seeing on how your bridge is still on the guitar raises many questions.....
First, someone glued it on.... Very bad.....
Maybee you might be able to remove it without doing any damage and realine it....
Like I said, this is a free floating bridge... Most of the time when you come across one of these guitar, the bridge is missing since the strings were brooken and never replaced.
Your problem would only be to try and pry it off, try with luke warm water just in case they used reg white glue, that will soften it up and you will be able to remove all traces of glue...
These pickups are real good and have a great sound, the major problem with these older types is the wirering... I usually change all the wirering...
For the wirering, you need to remove everything, start with the pickups and then the knobs and input jack, easy to get everything out from the pickup holes...
You have a nice guitar there, with a little work and effort, it will look and sound great.
Best of luck,
P.
