Hey Bill...heres alittle headstock action for ya!:hyper:

Ok, five string with a D-tuner on the lower string. How is this thing going to be tuned? EADGC?
Something like that, I was planning it to be down a step from that, so D-G-C-F-Bb, with a drop to C, Or E-A-D-G-C down a half step, with the drop to Db(lot of my fave songs need that tuning), but I'm expecting to want it in B-E-A-D-G, most often down a half step too(my Roscoes are always downtuned at least a half step), in which case the D-tuner will be used for drop A/Ab.

But mainly, I do expect to stay in E-A-D-G-C, or downtuned from there.

Can you tell I screw about with my tuning way too much? :D

And is that a Just-a-nut?

Yes sir! Greg arranged that for me while he was still a Warwick dealer. :)
