Setting up bridge for bowing.

Brett	Setting up bridge for bowing. Hello everyone, I have a Yamaha Pacifica (a fat strat copy), and I want to set it up so I can play with a cello bow. I want the bridge to be arched so I can play each individual string, and double stops (eg raised action on the 3rd and 4th strings, with lower action on the 2nd and 5th strings, and even lower action on the 1st and 6th strings). Is this possible to do while still mainting good intonation? Thanks alot, Brett
