    Default Coming soon to an auction site near you!

    A shout out to Bill Drellow who managed to snag a pearl truss rod cover on eBay that had my name engraved on it. I'm guessing they were using it as an example for sales.

    For Posterity. The one on eBay and the one I got.

    I think I would go with the name of my mandolin.
    I wonder why that's not more popular

    This was from the Michael Edgerton signature model. You can still buy these by the way with your own name on them.

    I just realized, this might be old stock from FQMS. I thought it was the new one from my mandola but it might be from my mandolin. I bought that back in 2003 or 2004.

    I got a '22 A4, It has a Nickle plated brass TRC, mostly, I expect, to highlight the actual addition of the Truss Rod itself ,

    "New, Improved" .. (& 2 years ago re fretted) .. it's centennial is next year..
