They used OME tailpiece, and I'm pretty sure they were made in-house. It's a wonderful TP; non-adjustable and rock-solid.
You can see a great photo of them being made in the 1973 catalog available on the Ome website.

Thanks DIV, mine has a Kershner on it now and it doesn't seem to fit well. Thought I'd see about getting the factory original if possible for it.

Mark - the original TP from my recently purchased 1977 tenor is maybe for sale.

Polle,
Mine is a 5 string not sure if a tail piece off a tenor would work.

Polle,
The kershner that is on it according to OME probably is the original. The engraving on it matches the rest of of the banjos metal parts and they said they did use Kershners sometimes. It just doesn't seem to fit well. Maybe I need to take it to a Luther and have it looked at.

Mark - the original TP from my tenor is in fact meant for 5-stringers also - at least it has 5 nos. horns for loop end strings.

Pollie, sorry I haven't got back with you. I've been busy. Is yours Nickel or gold plated? If you decide to sell it and it's Nickel let me know. I'll see if I can come up with the money.
