Carved a new tailpiece, "carved" being a loose definition. Okay, I finally found my cross-cut saw and sawed off a piece of maple, drilled some holes, and fitted the new tailpiece behind the location of the old tailpiece.
The angle betweeen tailpiece and bridge is greatly relieved, and will be more so with some refinements.
Unfortunately, now I have to track down the source of a nasty buzz when I play the F string. I know (or at least I think I know) that the buzz is either in the bridge trench, or between the body and the new tailpiece, because it happens no matter where I fret notes.
So, this weekend will be spent doing detective work. No pictures yet, haven't had time.
