Rinestone Loar

[Mike Snyder]

While it is not a look that appeals to me, it appeared to be done in a professional manner. Very classy and garish at the same time. It was the second Loar that I had been close to and it did not have the sound or mojo of Reischmans.

Interesting nut(s) on that Loar; bone for the G and D courses and ebony for the A and E courses. Looks to be compensated as well. Thanks for posting the pic Brad.

My guess is the bone is loose and not up the the edge of the fingerboard and the strings are holding it on. That much compensation would make it unplayable.
