This particular tailpiece model was discontinued a long time ago. It's an ABM part. They're still in the busines making good quality brass tailpieces. Not like the current cheap die cast or injected chinese stuff. ABMs are milled from solid brass plates. The right way. They're not cheap but it's the best option for an archtop regarding tone. I much prefer brass tails over wooden ones. ABM is one of the last makers offering this kind of stuff.

As I said, that ABM model is discontinued, but the 1266 is still in production and surelly will look cool on a Florida. Any Jeweler may engrave the model name in it if you like that.
