Dunlop stopbar/tailpiece?

Hi all,

I recently acquired a used Gibson 335.

Just changed the strings and noticed that the stop bar and the bridge didn't fall off when I removed the old strings.

On closer inspection the bridge is locked with grubscrews and when I took it off there is nothing to identify the manufacturer.
The tailpiece has no grubscrews but locks down with the screws and the parts that screw into the body are squared for adjustment, the actual bar is light in weight and bears a Dunlop (as in Jim Dunlop) logo on the underside.

I can't find anything online regarding Dunlop Tailpieces - does anybody have any information?

Not particularly bothered as the guitar sound and plays great, just curious.

Thanks in advance.

    UPDATE!
    I think, after much internet trawling that I've identified the bridge as a Tonepros TP6.
    I'm also reasonably sure that the tailpiece studs are Tonepros SS1's

    The Dunlop tailpiece remains a mystery so any info would be welcome.
