Weird non-acorn nut on my truss rod--anyone know what it is?

Here's a pic of how I dealt with the big route issue on my "4008CS"....

Yep, that is exactly how RIC should design the neck pickup routing.

According to the engineer in me that is...

As much as I absolutely love 4001 and 4003, these have some aspects of their design that belong in the ''things that make you go hmmmm'' category.

I really wish RIC would make the truss rods a little longer and put a thrust plate at the body end like at the headstock. This would solve a lot of problems, such as John B's "V68" issue.[/i][/b]

There you go being clever again and pointing out something that is now obvious.. (now where is that thumbs up smiley)
An extra thrust plate would do the trick wouldn't it........
