Re: Old-style taipieces with covers: threat or menace?
I switched out the two piece tail on some of my mandolins to a cast piece for the simple reason being the cover on the two piece dug into my arm and made playing
very uncomfortable. And yes I like the look of the cast pieces.
(I didn't change out on the Epiphone because the cast piece would have cost more than I paid for the instrument, and the Mid Mo seems fine as is, the cover doesn't bother my arm).
Ratliff R5 2007, Capek A5 2003, Washburn M5S-SB Jethro Burns 1982, Mid-Mo M-2, Epiphone MM 30 Bk mandolins, Harmony Batwing 1970's, George Bauer bowlback early 1900's Philadelphia.
