Re: Eastman Tailpiece Replacement Available for Free
When the tailpiece on the MDC 805 mandocello I used to own let go, Eastman rep took one off a new instrument just shipped from China, and sent it to me as a replacement. It was an improved design, not likely to let go at the "hinge" like the old one.
They kept the de-tailpieced 'cello in stock until another tailpiece came in. I always cite this as an example of customer service going the extra mile for a customer.
