will it handle ball end strings as well as loop end?

I haven't tried it, but I doubt ball-end will work. You can use side cutters to remove the ball end, which leaves a loop to affix to the pegs.

does this tailpiece come with a cover?

No that’s the way it comes just like you see it. It’s a beautiful tail piece and looks great and adds sustain. I’ve had mine on my mandolin for at least a couple years now maybe more. I like it!

i need a replacement tailpiece for a Michael Kelly firefly mandolin. could you send me mounting hole spacing for your tailpieces? i don't want to redr

From where the tailpiece contacts the soundboard the center mounting hole is 3.5 cm down, the two top holes are 1.5 cm down from the sound board and 2 cm apart. This is a pretty tailpiece but be aware it is cast at a steep angle, which I had to bend to get the correct angle to the bridge. I did break one trying to get the angle adjusted.
