Absolutely. It’s a great playing accessory. Plus it reduces belly sweat by 25%. An armrest used with a Tone-Gard makes it even better. Both the back and the top are allowed to vibrate freely.
The process is pretty straightforward using the two pin method. Most of the Eastman’s I’ve seen and installed pg’s on had a cantilevered fingerboard. I’ve done it two ways. First using longer pins...
Autocorrect is your worst enema
Just located and arranged. Thank you
Yes the intended use is for mandolin tops

Armrest and Tone-Gard is the best combination for volume and tone

Get better soon! This getting older stuff can be quite annoying.
