List, I wrap cloth tape from the stem down and the excess tape is held by the plugs. Fraying? curled up tape edges? 2 or 3 coats of clear shellac take care of those particular problems as well as the problem of the tape getting dirty and tatty looking. I'm kind of surprised no ones mentioned this approach before.
