It's a great guitar, or I would never recommend it, lol!

The nut width is about 1-5/8", 14" radius. Profile is great.


dammit! i prefer 43mm (1 11/16")

:(

ah well, at least ibanez, jackson usa, fender and gibbos are 43mm...  :twisted:

EDIT: thanks for the info, TO!

Thanks very much for your help everyone! Its muchly appreciated - as I know absolutely nothing about Floyds... But i have heard that the licensed ones are quite gash so i'l look for an original or something...

That ESP M-II is VERY nice, but i cant afford it. I played on one and loved it, but i dont have that sorta money! Inexpensive is £400-ish to me, so thats the kinda range im looking at.

Im looking at them Ibanez's now, i heard their floyd's are very good so i'l have a butchers. Im still in love with the Nuno, but if i can find something that looks nicer or something i'l go with that. Did look at Jackson/Charvel, very nice but they are cliched to metal which is nice, being a metalhead, but i dont want a 'metal' guitar if you get my drift...

I strongly suggest the Schecter's. They are amazing value for money and play pretty well. The hardware is top quality too.

Why don't you have a look at the ESP Ltd models?

Another person local to me I see!

It's in for a pro setup right now. When it comes back I'll probably list in on eBay and hope to get something like £360 (~$650US).
