The TP-70 is a timeless design that was commonly found on early semi-hollow and hollow-body guitars before the advent of the stop bar tailpiece. Featuring a simple yet elegant bale anchored to a clover-shaped base, the TP-70 captures the refined styling of the late 1950s and early 1960s.

The decorative top plate is adorned with the signature raised diamond embossing; a subtle yet iconic visual cue that helped define an era of classic guitar design. Beyond its aesthetics, the trapeze construction reduces downward tension on the bridge, contributing to a more open, resonant tone and a smooth, responsive playing feel.

What truly sets the TP-70 apart is its construction. Unlike many trapeze tailpieces that rely on stamped steel, cast metal or other cost-conscious materials, the TP-70 is precision CNC machined from solid brass. The result is a premium-quality component with exceptional fit, finish, durability, and consistency.

The additional mass of brass can contribute to improved sustain and a more substantial feel, while the precision CNC manufacturing process ensures tight tolerances and outstanding attention to detail. From the crisp machining to the flawless contours, every aspect of the TP-70 reflects a level of craftsmanship rarely found in traditional trapeze tailpieces.

For builders, restorers and players seeking the ultimate trapeze tailpiece, the TP-70 represents the perfect blend of vintage-correct styling, premium materials and modern manufacturing. Simply put, it's the top-shelf option in the world of trapeze tailpieces.
