that is a tailpiece from a faker ...

the real ones don't bend that bad from just 4 strings ...

I will take that tailpiece ... if he pays me $5 to take it ... and ships for free ...

These pictures are making my hair stand up!

put DA chromes on my C64 a few weeks ago, got some very minimal lift (picture doesn't show it well, best my camera and I could do). Doesn't seem to be getting any worse. As Dave C said on page 2 of this thread, I was seeing a very slight gap even with the factory strings on it.

the 2 extra screws is a great engineering solution ... it is just not pretty ...

Jack ... that little bit of lift is not a problem ... if it ever gets to 1/4" then you have a problem ...
