  • Another Model 2 (not a newbie here tho)

    Is there an after market locking nut for my model 2? Original ones are kind of scarce.

    I would say the standard Kahler after the nut stringlock. Almost identical to the 1986 version, 87 there's a difference in the lock down screws.

      What bridge does your Model 2 have? If it has a Kahler, it uses a Kahler string lock. If it has a floyd licensed trem, it used the JT6 string lock which aren't interchangable.

        It's a JT6 trem. I'd like to go with a correct one but if I can't find one (locknut).................I was wondering if there was a direct replacement. I wonder if a R3 FR locknut would work if I shimed it up to the proper height. (just till I can find the correct one)

          FR nut wont work unless you remove the graphite nut then there will have to be mods made to make the FR nut work going back to the standard nut will not be possible.Keep looking for an original string lock you will find one.

            One of these?



            Have you ever seen the second one? Do you know if it will fit the existing mounting holes? It looks cool. Like an old Edwards nut.
