1 5/8", R2 nut

[me wise majic]

Does Jackson make anything with a 1 5/8" nut? I haven't seen one. I like several Jacksons, but I have to be able to play it.

Not a very common option on Jacksons..
However, you can oder anyting you want from the Custom Shop.
If you don't have huge bucks and are lookig for a Soloist style guitar, look for the Kramer Stagemaster Deluxe or ESP "The Mirage".

These 2 guitars are basically blood brothers to the Soloist.
I have owned both(and still have the Mirage)and can honestly say I like them as much, if not better, then any Soloist I ever played.(Currently own a San Dimas era Pink Soloist)

Other than the Kramer Stagemaster, the nightswan and Pro Axe both has narrow nut. Out of the three, the pro axe is the least expensive.

I believe that the AT-1 had a 1 5/8" nut as well.

Although thay did not come with Floyds.

Any other side effect?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">My hand is about 1/2" more toward "the inside" than it should be. My pinky "rides high" above the fretboard due to this.
