Trapeze tailpieces are used to anchor the ends of the strings on a guitar. The strings then go over the top of a bridge. Trapeze tailpieces are very common on archtop acoustic guitars and hollowbody electric guitars. They are also occasionally used on flattop acoustics.
Mounting is straightforward. The hinge is screwed to the end of the the body.

Be careful to centre the tailpiece so the strings go over the bridge straight.
