Need help!

Post by motrock » Wed Apr 23, 2008 1:52 pm

Guys, I need to buy an Original Floyd Rose Locking Nut(Gold). Where can I find them? All I am finding are the Chrome and Black ones. What site will be the most reliable? The locking nut on my guitar is not an original floyd rose locking nut. Where the string sets in the nut, its a cut off V shape..... unlike real Floyd nut thats a V shape. So, I am having problems with the low strings pinging, and making a ringing noise. I had a guitar builder look at it and he said the pinging was coming from the nut.

Well, I don't need the whole Floyd.... I just need a new locking nut(gold colored). I was hoping that Warmoth would sell the parts seperately.

Whats the difference between 1 11/16" Nut Width Wide and 1 11/16" Nut Width Narrow? The only option they have in stock at the moment is 1 11/16" Nut Width Narrow. I measured mine and it measures at 1 11/16" on the dot. Will the 1 11/16" Nut Width Narrow work?

somebody check me on this, but i read that the narrow string spacing nut was created for necks with bound fretboards. If you have a plain fretboard without binding, I don't believe you need the narrow string spacing.
