Jackson Kelly Pro Nut Width

[Euthanasia]

Hello people!
I want to change my guitar's beidge to a Floyd Rose Pro and i need to know what is my guitar's exact nut width.
the guitar is a 94' Jackson Kelly Pro.
Can anybody help me please?

1 11/16" (43mm).

Thanks!!
I was confused by the inches (i talk centimeters haha) and i thought it was 11/16" and not 1 + 11/16". lol, sorry.

anyway, i measured the nut and it's seems to be more like 1 5/8" (41mm).
might it be or i am somehow wrong?

and ifi will buy a 1 5/8" nut and its actually an 1 11/16" nut, would i be able to install it anyway?

the professional series had for the most part all R2 nut widths (1 and 5/8)
most other Jacksons have R4 (1 and 11/16)

OK.
I have the Kelly Pro, the highest Kelly model in the professional serious (1994), not performer, but i measured it and its about 41mm long... how can it be?

[Nazgul]

Interesting...I never knew they used 1 5/8" too. Euthanasia, take off the locking nut and see what size it is:
R2 - 1 5/8"
R3/R4 - 1 11/16"

What is that R2 R3 and R4?

[Euthanasia]

and damn, i dont sure if its 1 5/8" or even 1 9/16... might it be 1 9/16...?!

[Nazgul]

What is that R2 R3 and R4?

These are the locking nut sizes...R3 and R4 are the same, only difference is the string spacing.

[Euthanasia]

OK thanks, and might it be 1 9/16...? or it can be maximum 1 5/8"?

[Nazgul]

OK thanks, and might it be 1 9/16...? or it can be maximum 1 5/8"?

According to: http://www.floydrose.com/nutsizes.html it can be, but the easiest way to make sure is to take the nut off, under it it's wrriten which size it is.

[Euthanasia]

Really?! thanks man!! i will check this out!!

[Euthanasia]

OK it's Written there R3 so its should be 1 11/16"?
And what is the string spacing? and what's the spacing in the R4?

[Euthanasia]

And when I measure it it's 40mm...
:S
strange no..?

and if i will buy th 1 5/8" when it's an R3 on my guitar, will it fit? or you think i should but the 1 11/16" even though its 40mm when i measure it?
