Had an 80's sp/cy 1A peg head as a main guitar for about five years Recently upgraded to an 80's Conde Is your question about the 'sound' of the trebles or what treble strings worked best on the guitar ? If the first .. Loud, sharp, biting but without the roundness, depth and sizzle of my Conde .. If the latter .. Luthier 20, labella 820b, Mari 300 and savarez or labella rectified all sounded ole on the guitar ...d'Addario and hannabach strings generally sounded duller but found most strings worked with luthier being preferred Hope that helps

worked on a rosewood Rameriz. mine was a blanca with a spruce top it certainly did'nt lack trebles....a good guitar...very adaptable to most strings handy.... the labella 2001 are, IMO a dull treble string compared to the 820 Savarez red card are a pretty bright set [again rectified nylon] just a shorter life span good luck

Just don´t listen too much to minds who settled stereotypes to themselves like that tuning machines could not make a difference. Such only displays either the inability to hear subtleties like the ones discussed in this thread, or worse than that, a religious attitude in life, which favours predefined claims over empiricis. For, while I can´t vouch for the effects of brass nuts, I can definitly do so for technically advanced tuners, whichs difference in use and precision I am ready to prove under blind-test conditions anytime. Other distinguished reference, here advising you to not try, is unable to experience obvious empirics like e.g. skins friction on smooth surfaces, so, with how much observational skills can there be counted on? Besides, remarkable about the lumping spirit is how the fraction that ridicules items like fine tuners has actually not even experienced top product like tuners from Klaus Scheller. Instead being all occupied with defending deliberately chosen ignorance. Could be on the other hand a guy like Romero Jr. to have judge enough on thelike detail. Apparently and not at last has it provided him with the ability to build guitars like only few can. I say try that nut. To prepare it roughly is little work, and afterwards you will actually hear whether it can help or not. ( And those of us curious enough will be interested to hear of your findings. Maybe you could try before and after recording at roughly same tracking condition? Just in case of it making a difference.) Ruphus
