Wider string spacing on a archtop?

I recently got a Ibanez Artcore AF55 Hollow-Body, like the guitar overall except for the string spacing could be a little wider. I plan on getting a nut blank to widen it up at that end, but what bridge would work to widen it up on that side? And where could I order/get one? I have done some searching on the inter-webs but not having much luck.

 

I figure between that and new tuners should set me on my way.

Thanks in advance.

Looks like a standard ABR bridge to me. You just need to find one that hasn't been pre notched. I would measure from the center of one bridge post to the other and compare that to a standard ABR1. You want to be sure its not some oddball metric size, but it looks like a regular ABR1 to me. EBay is loaded with them.
