Which nut should I order?

[Dred]

The Jackson site says 1.6875", so that equals to 1 11/16". An R3/R4 there. A matter of preference, really. I'd go for an R4

I'm not familiar with the WR-1. Doesn't it already have a double locking Floyd? If the nut width is 1 5/8", get the R2. If nut width is 1 11/16" you have a choice. The R4 will put the E strings closer to the edge of the fretboard, and give a bit more space between the strings. The R2 will put the strings a bit closer together, but you'll be away from the edges of the fretboard.

I'm thinking of switching from an R4 to an R2 on my Jackson KV2 because I keep pulling the high E off the fretboard when I'm playin'.

My two cents!

R3, mate. 1 11/16" has the R3/R4 dimesnions.

+1...bound neck Jacksons usually come with R3's

Thanks Dred. My mistake!
