I have a mandolin with a tailpiece hook that's bent fairly severely. It needs replacing, but I've never shopped for tailpieces. Are all the vintage style stamped ones essentially the same quality? It's a nice Sparks F-5 that my dad played for nearly 30 years, so I wouldn't mind spending a little and putting on some quality hardware.
Also, would prefer matte nickel to shiny chrome.
