R tail piece required.

Post by watton_earth »

Hi All, i'm after a 4005 (4 string) R tail piece. Does anyone have a 12 string tail piece up for sale that I can modify? Alternatively does anyone know where I can have one made?

Check here at Winfield Vintage:

They don't sell a bass one but I believe that they could make one easily for you. Just email them, I believe Chip is his name, and inquire about it
Hope this helps

...but you're tired of the profanity and frustration that go along with every string change -- have we got something for you...
There's frustration involved with changing strings on an 'R' tailpiece? News to me.

I don't have a problem either, but I've been fiddling with them for 15 years. At first it took some getting used to. People seem to love their trapezes to pieces.
