More String Behind The Bridge

I saw there was a thread about the Harmonic Complexity guitar, which is way cool.
Has anyone done any experimenting with any kind of "third bridge" guitars?
I bought this old Kay at a junk shop, with dead pickups and no bridge, and when I cobbled it back together, I moved the tailpiece to the end of the guitar to get more string length on the wrong side, to get a low rent Hans Reichel effect going:

Similarly, I silicone glued a pickup to a capo to use at the headstock of another guitar:
