Deering Tech - Deering Upperline Tailpiece Adjustment 

Chad is awesome. He teaches you every step in easy to digest pieces.

Thanks Chad. I have a GDL and was getting a buzz on my 4th string on certain notes. Noticed my tailpiece was off of the hoop. Just lowering the tailpiece to touch the surface of the hoop took care of the buzz. Thanks again!

Thanks so much. Now that I know how to use the TruTone...

What about the Vega Senator? How do we adjust the tail piece on that?

Hi! I've seen some videos regarding Presto style tailpieces which recommend not setting them on the tension hoop or using the angle adjustment screw andetting them "float". What is different about the TruTone tailpiece vs. a regular Presto style where uou set it up differently? I have a Julia Belle that I was doing some setup on and didn't want to mess up the tailpiece adjustment. Thank you!

Wouldn't that often rupture the head?

Hey Chad, what about the Deering standard tailpiece, like what's used on the Goodtime series? It's mounted to the banjo differently and has no adjustment screw. It's mounted to the coordinator rod. Is the standard tailpiece also supposed to be firmly against the tension ring like the True Tone piece in the video? My Artisan Special came with it almost an 1/8" above being in contact with the tension ring and 1/4" from the head as measured at the edge facing the bridge.

My question: all videos i see, they lift a lid to get under the tailpiece. There is no lid, it's one solid immovable piece. All i need to do is add a string i broke while tuning. I have no idea how to remove the tailpiece. The user manual didn't show and no video out there shows me HOW?? so frustrated. It's a 5 piece full size vangoa banjo and i tried to loosen 2 screws and loosen some other knobs and I'm probably ruining my new banjo 😅

Sorry to bug you guys with questions, but after watching this video a couple of times and looking at my own Banjo (a Maple Blossom) I think I have issues, but I'm not sure. So my tailpiece sits higher at the top (towards the 5th string) than it does at the bottom. Also, the long phillips adjustment screw is at a pronounced angle. Is it supposed to be straight up/down? Is it possible my tailpiece is bent all out of shape?

Is there any real difference between what's shown here and the Maple Blossom series? My tailpiece is WAY over the tension hoop. Also you don't need to loosen the strings before doing this?

Please help, my husband has undone his clamshell tail piece and cannot put it back together 🙏
