I love that tailpiece. Did you make it yourself or have it fabricated? If so, who did you get to do it.

Beautiful guitars.

Beautiful guitars.
Thank you. Sorry for the long delay, I haven't been on the AGF in a while.

I designed the tail piece myself in illustrator and converted it to cad. Then I just had a local guy in pittsburgh, whos name is escaping me at the moment, cut the part out on a waterjet.

Then I fit, bent, and polished by hand.

The Yellow art deco instrument out of this group of three is for sale at your perfect guitar in FL.

Here is a nice video of the instrument made a while back by Grammy Winner Aron Stang
