    Thumbs up

    Hi all,

    I received the tailpiece I bought from Keith Newell. This thing looks great! Nice and solid, great design, and professional workmanship. I can't wait to get the original stamped metal POS off my mando and put this one on.

    I've got one of these waiting to be installed on an old A-Jr that's getting a setup etc. in the shop. I think it'll look very classy on a vintage axe.

    Thanks all for the compliments. I just listed in the classifieds some of my new gold plated tailpieces. I have never offered those before. Here's a link http://www.mandolincafe.com/cgi-bin....trieval

    I think the one with the sun would look cool on my new zouk. Are these nickel plated?

    I offer them in polished stainless steel and gold plated. The gold plated ones are first nickel plated then gold plated. The polished stainless steel ones are nice and shinny but have no plating to discolor or peal off.
