This replaced a standard two piece unit on a Kentucky KM-150. I was changing the strings a few days ago, and two of the little tabs that hold the strings started lifting. As I added tension they kept coming up. I decided that if I could get it to playable tension without the tabs breaking off it would be a miracle. So, I chose this tailpiece as a replacement for two reasons: 1, it is heavier gauge metal so the tabs would be more sturdy, and 2, it is a single piece without a "cap."When I took the cap off of the old one today one of the tabs had move to a vertical position. Time to replace it! So the new tailpiece is certainly heavier, and has nice chrome. The chrome is a problem too. There isn't much space under the tabs, and the ones on both ends had bridged with chrome plating so that they didn't really have slots anymore. I had to work some sandpaper under the end tabs to open them up. The holes are really all in different places than the original, so I had to plug the holes, and drill new ones (no big deal). It went on without a hitch, but it is flat across the back, and the mandolin is curved. It would be nice if the tailpiece had a little arch to it. I may take it off at some point to see if I can bend it a bit, but for now it is on, and working well.The first strings to install were a little tricky to get in place, but after a few strings I had a technique that goes fast, and is much easier than the old tailpiece.In all this is a great addition to my mando. I trust it much more than my last tailpiece. Issues with the gaps being filled in, and the flat profile of the back plate are minor. The holes being in different places was somewhat expected since it is a different style of tailpiece.I read a review that claims it to be a cast tailpiece, and that is not true. It is heavy gauge with thick chrome plating, but it was made from sheet metal. It is what I expected, but if you read the other review you may be disappointed.

Product is sturdy and beautiful. It is as described and comes with three screws to mount unto your mandolin. HOWEVER, it might not fit your A-style mandolin and you might need to drill some holes to make this tailpiece fit. I attempted to switch out the tailpiece of my Eastman MD-305 (it has a traditional gibson tailpiece) and the holes didn't align by quite the distance (between .2-.6cm). I do not have the expertise nor the courage to go on drilling my mandolin so I ended up returning the piece. If you have the skills and patience to drill by all means do so, your mandolin would look absolutely gorgeous.

Tailpiece is cast brass with a nice finish. I find no flaws or problems with the tailpiece and am sure it would be fine. However, I did not get to use it. The clamshell angle is fairly high and would work fine, I am sure, for an arched top mandolin. Mine is a flat top and it would have been too much of an angle over the strings, so I returned it. I find no fault in the product; it just should be mentioned that this product is for arched-top mandolins.I gave it four stars because of the exposed teeth in back, which hold the string loops. To prevent the teeth from catching on your strap, you'll have to either use a very broad leather strap or placed a leather washer between the strap and the teeth.

If you're tired of two piece tailpieces that have the covers falling off all the time, and feel cheap and tinny, this is a very nice step up that bridges the gap between cheap stamped tailpieces and high-end brass cast ones. I like one-piece units, and this classic scallop design is excellent. I have pewter antique tuners on my mandolins (two Big Muddy all-mahogany M-11s), so I antiqued this tailpiece using Birchwood Casey cold blue, and it matched up beautifully. This are rock-solid tailpieces, and if you can't afford a fancy cast one, but hate stamped ones with the slide on covers, this is a great way to fix the problem.

Clamshell tailpieces like this were found on tens or even hundreds of thousands of bottom end mandolins in the nineteen teens and twenties, but they were generally stamped from cheap metal and pretty easy to bend. They are still available. I installed one on a cheap mandolin last month. It cost half what this one costs. However, this one is not stamped, but cast and heavy. The metal is not 1/32" thick, but 1/16". Very solid, and the mass should increase sustain, at a small fraction of the cost of other cast tailpieces. One comment: the finish is heavily plated, and some of the plating may be blocking some of the little tabs that hold the strings. I recommend running a tiny file under the tabs to clean them out, or perhaps a doubled over piece of sandpaper. If you do, you won't have string loops getting caught under the tabs. My tailpiece did come with screws, as advertised. In answer to the person who thought the screws were too close to the tabs, there is enough room for the wire, but just barely. If you are using an end pin jack, you really don't need those screws. If you are installing a strap button with a screw that sticks out 3/4", that's plenty to support the taiiece and strings if you run the screw through the bottom little hole. If you do that, you'll probablyneed to drill out that hole a little. Or install the strap button in the hole for the endpin jack and maybe another small screw in the bottom hole. (I do think the screws that came with the tailpiece are a little short. Try using the ones from the tailpiece you are replacing.
