I'd say you've got it good for sure!  Tailpieces should be in any day now!

I sent him an email over a week ago and he didn't reply.  Not like him to ignore me, so I'm gonna try him again.

Got a reply from Hipshot today and they are programming the tail pieces now, which I suspect we're talking CNC programming and production scheduling.  So, they are moving forward!

Got another note from Hipshot.  They said not to worry, it's just the Christmas rush and they are swamped, but the tail pieces are definitely forthcoming.

Thanks for all of your efforts!

My pleasure, I know what a hassle it is when you need one and can't get your hands on it.
