  • DR3 locking nut bolts stripped out

    [/IMG]Trying to figure out what size locking nut to order , how do I measure for it or does someone know what size it should be ? I think it should be 1 11/16 but I m not to sure . I put a pic of it here , because I know everybody likes to see pics. Thanks Keith.

    1-11/16" is probably right since it's more or less the standard on most Jacksons production models, but you should measure it using some digital callipers or even a ruler. You'll need an R3 nut if it's 1-11/16"

    Here's a list of different Floyd Rose nuts with differing specs:

    R1: narrow: Width: 1-9/16"; Height: .225"; Spacing: 1.30?; Radius: 10"
    R2: standard: Width: 1-5/8"; Height: .225"; Spacing: 1.37?; Radius: 10"
    R3: wide: (narrow string spacing for bound neck), Width: 1-11/16"; Height: .275"; Spacing: 1.40?; Radius: 10"
    R4: wide: (wide string spacing), Width: 1-11/16"; Height: .275"; Spacing: 1.43?; Radius: 10"
    R5: extra wide. Width: 1-3/4"; Height: .275"; Spacing: 1.50?; Radius: 10"
    R6: R1 with bullet nut relief. Width: 1-9/16"; Height: .225"; Spacing: 1.30?; Radius: 10"
    R7: R2 with bullet nut relief. Width: 1-5/8"; Height: .225"; Spacing: 1.37?; Radius: 10"
    R8: R4 with flatter radius. Width: 1-11/16"; Height: .225"; Spacing: 1.43?; Radius: 15"
    It's all about the blues-rock chatter.

        Okay , decided to re tap holes to 8/32 , allen head bolts fit in real nice, now the nut blocks [STRUKTURE part #SSNB6BK $6.99 from sam ash] do not fit in the slot .The package says its for floyd rose and Schallers. Tried to grind off some to fit it in slot but went to far. Anybody here use the allparts brand [ALLPARTS BP0116003] and not had any problems ?
