Is there a hard-tail equivalent of the Gotoh VS-100?

What I really like about the Gotoh VS-100 is the lockable (just tighten down the hex screw) saddles.
Are there any fixed bridges that have a similar (lock down the saddles) feature?
 
Closest I could find was a listing by ABM for their modern hardtail bridge:
- https://abm-guitarpartsshop.com/ABM...ges/Modern-7-8/7-String:::256_92_152_153.html
There are pictures for a 6-string bridge on their site, but only pages for the 7 & 8 string versions.

Their individual saddle bridge could possibly be close as well:

Similarly from Musiclilly:

There are plenty of options to purchase the Wilkinson style lock-down saddles and I've seen photos where people have made their own.
 
The Schiller 475 used to have a side cam screw that locked the saddles. It appears the new ones no longer have that feature. Used ones are available. They will have a screw on the lower side.

The 6-string version of that ABM bridge seems to be discontinued.

There seem to have been a hardtail version of the VS-100, the Wilkinson HT-100 or HT100, but it's discontinued now, too.
