Not compatible with original Gibson etched cover plate
I tried to use this Lyre Vibrola unit to replace worn parts of my original tailpiece on my Gibson ES 355TD guitar. The gold was really corroded on the old parts, but I wanted to use the new frame and handle assembly with my original cover plate which is factory "etched" by Gibson. The new part is not etched. I found that the screw holes on the frame were not in the same place as on the original ones and the original cover plate could not be used. I ended up sending the unit back to
Ebay Plus Music Products, and am now in a dispute for giving me credit on my return. Where is the Paypal "Total Satisfaction" guarantee???
