The more layers of mu metal the better the EMF isolation. Now the plating is basically pure nickel is a mumetal without the cryogenic treatment. SO rather than use mumetal ( expensive and you know I am cheap) I slide the 1 1/4 tailpiece inside a 1 1/2 one. You can use o rings to center the inner piece or washers.
While a single tailpiece works, two concentric ones work even better.
File the edges to base brass metal and essentially you make one tailpiece present a double layer of mumetal to the EMF . No extra cost, just a few minutes of work with a bastard file (yeah that's what they are called in the US)
