Wittner ULTRA TailpieceGenuine original Wittner tailpiece used by violinist world-wide. Don't be fooled by imitations! Wittner tailpiece last longer and tune more smoothly than look-alikes. The tailpiece is made of a Space Age composite material and designed to be ULTRA strong and ULTRA light. The four built in fine-tuners allow students (and parents!) to easily tune their violin without the risk of breaking strings.
The included nylon tailgut with threaded ends makes installation easy. Simply mark the current bridge position with masking tape. Loosen the strings and remove the current tailpiece. The bridge will come off - this is why you should've marked it first (no, it is NOT supposed to be glued in place). Install the new tailpiece with the tailgut adjusted to bring the tailpiece close to but not touching the saddle. Insert the ball ends of the strings into the appropriate fine tuner slots on the tailpiece and replace the bridge where marked. Bring the strings up to pitch slowly, checking carefully that the bridge remains standing straight and does not lean forward towards the fingerboard. Any violin shop and many violin teachers should be able to assist with installation should you need help.
This product is for a 4/4 Sized Violin
