My first inclination would be to find a pedal steel manufacturer, and perhaps be able to shorten one of theirs.

Here's what an 8 String Fender 400 looks like, for example:

Aside from that you're asking for something that's almost as hard to find as a 2.375" spaced Telecaster bridge.

And better still here's a guy who makes 6 string units, in Ireland, but he ships, and the price is very reasonable.
