I'm very happy!
Thanks. I just took some pics of the stock TRC and sent them to Bill with the idea of grading the thickness of the TRC downward as you approach the screw holes at the bottom. My thoughts are that it would still be well below the inlay, but allow the strings to pass over the nut without touching it.

I sent him a macro image that I took of the stock TRC where the strings touch to give him a view of what I was thinking. I will report back, but this is the design that I was hoping to have him create.
