Does anyone make a roller nut that will fit on a floyd shelf?

[coloradoman25]

Just wondering as I have a neck that I would love to use for a project I have but the project is a wilkinson and the neck has a floyd shelf

I swore I had seen something like this before/

Wilkinson does, but they're pretty funky. I think I actually have one in a parts bin that you're welcome to. They look like this:



There's also these ebanol floyd nut conversions:

Those wilkinson nuts had all sorts of issues if I remember correctly.

Those ebanol nut conversions suck too!

Yeah those roller nuts wont work because they move the string contact point back to the center of the roller, making the scale length longer thus screwing up the intonation.

The Wilk nut that I've got at the moment is compensated and a little different from the pic I posted. Pretty sure it won't get in the way of string length. It was given to me years ago, but I've never used it. Who knows.

So wait, each string pair shares a roller? So when one slips the other goes with it?

And they didn't have a proper radius, and they sometimes made noise, etc... if I recall correctly. I don't tend to remember horrible products that were only put on production guitars for a year or two and forgotten.

I'd still rather have a Wonderbar than a Kahler!
