I am wondering if anyone has an opinion ont he Mystic BILLET tailpiece versus the Allen OnePiece. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Not sure I like the idea of allen screws holding the string ends... http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif
I'm heading for a Bill James TP as soon as finances will allow!

Looks solid enough, but I don't care for its' appearance - too bulky. Looks like it was designed by a machinist, not an artist. Waiting to receive the Allan TR2 that I ordered from Elderly. It's gonna go on the Oldwave Bill is building me. http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

looks like it would add some time to the changing process and I know me, I'd have that allen wrench till I needed it and then it'd be gone...
Not a bad looking one to my eye tho, just too many moving parts. I'll stick with the Price.
