Nice, I really dig them tuners as well.....just curious but whats your take on the roller ball nut...do you find it to be a plus in any way? ...like does it really help it stay in tune during bending better than a traditional nut? and does it change the tone in any way thats really noticable, and if so do you think its favorable??? I get kinda stuck on traditional stuff so I don't always dig those type of upgrades ....opinions????
If I can say something here, the LSR roller nut has been around for a long time so in a sense it is kind of traditional. I'm pretty sure Fender introduced them on the Strat plus series of guitars in the 80's. I used to have a Strat Plus from 1989 and I fell in love with that roller nut. As for it changing the sound, well, if you think about it it wouldn't make it any worse than a guitar that has a Floyd Rose locking unit on it and we all know that's really a non-issue. I've wanted to get the LSR on my builds but Warmoth only preps the neck for it, they won't install it. I haven't the slightest idea how to work on any kind of nut, and I don't want a guitar shop working on my builds, so I've passed on it. I'd sure like to have one again though.
