Mysterious object by tailpiece
I have a Regal mandolin from the 1920s that's been in the family since then. I seem to recall it having (years ago) a thick-ish piece of what I think was green felt (shaped a bit like a pick) under the tailpiece and strings on the top of the instrument where the strings go into the tailpiece. That was years ago, and it's not there now (my dad had it re-strung for me a number of years ago, so it may have departed then). Any idea what the felt would have been for?
1920s Regal #1260 (I think)
