A ways back I posted to see if anyone insalled the new armrest\tailpiece from Weber. Since I got no feedback here is some for you. The holes line up and the radius is perfect. The button will need to be bored out with a 3/8" drill but I used the one that came with my MK. The far end of the radius opposite the tail comes very close to touching the belly. Weber told me they would send a couple more felt pieces to build it up. It looks real good like it was made for the instrument and has all the benefits of a one piece tailpiece, nothing to remove when changing strings and some of the other problems associated with the standard ones. The folks at Weber will work with you if your instrument tolerences are that far away from their own models. Paula will ask you for a tracing of the radius and they can make sure it will work. I think most F STYLES are pretty similar and most won't have problems. If I could figure how to post pics on this site I would.
