Kahler with a FLoyd rose Lock

[dmraco]

I am building a Soloist with a Kahler whammy and want to use a Floyd style lock.  Do I have aany issues with nut width?  1 5/8 or 1 11/16?

Thanks

will work like a charm. make sure you order the right nut for your neck though. but you can use both, ofcourse

this is what I am struggling with...the 1 5/8 is small, the NARROW 1 11/16 has a spread like a 1 5/8, and the WIDE 1 11/16 is a true 1 11/16?  So what is the difference betweem 1 5/8 and the narrow 1 11/16?? What does thst mean??

I guess I need to play a few examples and then look up the specs.
