obviously there would be licensing issues, and most guitarists still don't appreciate or understand the benefits of a compensated nut, but one can dream. Can you imagine the precision of a CNC milled nut that is compensated for each individual option on a Warmoth neck? It would blow away the after-market stuff. It would also provide an opportunity to design a very clean looking OEM nut that doesn't require such a wide nut slot - ie the LSR slot for Fender guitars. The nut could just be moved closer to the first fret.
I understand that this option will probably never happen, but I wonder if it's possible to have a modified nut slot option. If I were to design my own compensated nut, could I get the nut slot moved closer to the first fret or have the slot deleted altogether so I could cut it myself?
