Not a bass but when will we see it on one?

Apparently the Dark Fire has a 'self lubricating teflon nut' (oo-er missis) which presumably is an attempt to cope with the daft headstock angle going out of tune thingy. Quite how teflon 'self lubricates' is sadly beyond me. Probably just jargon for 'the teflon comes off with wear so you'll have to get it replaced at an extortionate cost in a few years'.

Probably. More marketing hype. Like the LSR roller nut... to be honest, a decent designed headstock and a decent cut nut would solve half of the problems.

You think that a Les Paul goes out of tune... you tried one with a Bigsby??!

There's a missed opportunity here.
This design could embrace the Gibson technology...
And be a self-"tuna"ing bass.
