guitar center usually wont have shit for parts for you. get them from an online supplier. and you can put any strings on any bridge. i think i have a wrap around adjustable saddle tailpiece/bridge floating around my parts drawer. i'll check today and pm you back later.
don't buy any first act (wal mart) parts. only go with stuff made by kluson, grover, tone pros, etc. the grovers off the epiphone might fit. where do you live man? i might be able to just take care of all this for ya since i'm a tech.

I guess Gibson does it to save having to do the wiring by hand. But then you use board mount pots and switches and the control spacing on your guitar has to match.

Or, I could easily desolder the Molex headers and wire new pickups straight to the board. But yeah, if you want to change pots or swap out a bunch of caps, then it's a pain in the ass.
I've actually considered making my own Les Paul wiring PCB (one board per pot so they can be easily removed individually) setup. I'd do it with a setup for multiple caps and a DIP switch so you could swap cap types on the fly, or add/subtract caps in parallel to adjust the sum value for that Tone pot. I've just been too lazy to break mine open and do all the measurements.
