There isn't a whole lot that can be done with just the plain 
wires, other than determining tension levels, without changing 
speaking lengths. Most of the benefits possible with the 
original bridges will be in the wrapped strings. I doubt 
anyone would be interested in scaling the plain wire with 
someone else doing the wrapped strings, and I wouldn't want to 
scale the wrapped strings without getting a look at the rest 
of the scale to see what best fits.

It's all, ideally, supposed to work together.
