The Stelling Pivot-Pin Tailpiece is held in place against the tension band mostly by the pressure of the strings. The tension band has two very small indentions to keep the tailpiece straight but generally, only string pressure keeps it in place. The tailpiece can be adjusted by three screws that are used to increase the distance between the tension band and the tailpiece. Strings attach at the screws at the back of the tailpiece, run over the top and then are pushed under the metal tabs (shown in this photo) to apply downward pressure on the strings, which in turn apply downward pressure on the bridge.
