One-of-a-kind mounting design and string attachment system, of chrome-plated steel construction. Excellent at transmitting tonal quality from the strings to the bridge wihout dampening sound. Heavy string hooks mount under standard tension hoop brackets without additional hardware. If you break a string, the tailpiece will not move and your banjo will stay in tune. Easily change loop-end strings by hooking each over it's corresponding rounded arch. An adjustment screw on the back regulates treble or bass response. For resonator banjos.
