I get that no beginner would want one, and I get there are a load of purists who think guitars can actually be played in tune all of the time... but guitars generally don't stay in tune for long periods of play, are easily affected by environmental factors, and ignoring the technique aspect of finger pressure - dynamics are tied to pitch... you can't play hard and not go sharp.

The reason it isn't more of a thing is down to how guitar culture reveres the past more than appreciates engineering solutions.

Guitars that aren't made of wood.
Bass players (a lot of them) seem to "get" instruments made of composites, aluminium or other interesting materials.
Guitarists (most of them, it seems to me) just can't accept guitars unless they're made of wood, and even then they cling to a need for certain species of wood...

Are they the same design as that?
They're very good BTW. It's still most definitely a Strat in terms of sound and actually silent.
I'm really impressed with them.

I'd love an LP style guitar built the same way.
Adjustable zero fret nuts... Of all the things Gibson have done recently I really felt that was a great idea.... I mean if the bridge is adjustable why shouldn't the nut be too?
And it doesn't have to have a zero fret or be made of metal.. Graphtec do a really cool replacement for the metal Gibson one
