Re: A-Jr tailpiece cover: push it down further?
Clamp between two pieces of wood and slowly and gently bend it up. It should match the angle. That's just wrong. If you don't want to do it with that cover there is a member of the Cafe that was making stainless copies of the cover. I'm assuming he still is.
I generally put a strip of stick on felt under those covers. It works great suppressing harmonic overtones and it keeps it from buzzing on the strings.
