Beautiful yes. But I'm sorry guys, I'll still take one where the strings don't rub on the wood. Looks like they have finally addressed it on the 08. Dave

the slots on my custom A are finished nicely.

... though D&G still kiss the TRC, I don't worry about it.

I'm devoping a new TRC lube/wax that you apply to the TRC. Helps the strings slide easily over it, avoids marring the TRC and helps the guitar stay in tune better. It's called "Slip-Cover". Should be available for internet sales by February. PayPal only.

Exact pricing has not been worked out yet. It'll launch in February in the US, probably a month later for international sales. There'll soon be a website where you can register for product updates. Dave

Tup - would a little slip-cover be useful on the saddle? I've noticed that the strings can rub there as well.
Also - would it help with an overtight thong rubbing on my own TRC?

I think you might be on a winner this time.

They already make this stuff called "nut sauce" that aids the slippage of strings through the nut. I would imagine you could use it on the saddle, but there seems to be much less of a need at that end.

My initial thought was to use "nut sauce" as the TRC lubricant as well and it would probably be OK on the plastic TRC's and gloss finished guitars. But I was worried about putting d'sauce on woods such as the ebony and walnut TRC's and the walnut of the adamas headstocks. That's why we're working on a mixture for Slip-Cover that will not "stain your wood the way that nut sauce can".

I think a Bone TRC would improve tone...
