Public service announcement(Ibanez content).
The next time any of you guys need a new nut for a 6-string Wizard neck(43mm) don't pay Ibanez's premium for a Top Lock III. Gotoh's "GHL-1" bottom mount 1 11/16" nut is the exact same item, radius and everything. Same bottom marking, same packaging, it's the same nut.
Top Lock III = $50 Gotoh nut = $20 Wish I'd known this sooner. Took a chance buying a Gotoh nut, and it paid off 100%.  |

I was way iffy on the radius, because I couldn't find documentation on the net anywhere. The Gotoh came today, and it shocked me. You could take the cardboard from the top of the Ibanez nut packaging and put it on the Gotoh and not tell the difference aside from one thing.
 The one thing? The Gotoh comes with a little tool to check/mark the mounting holes with.  |

Thanks dude. How about their 7-string nut? Do they even make one? Ibby's is like a $100 part.

 Oh, forgot to say, you better want Black, Chrome, or Gold, because there's no fucking Cosmo Black.  |

Trust your ears.
In life and music, what is is but that doesn't always mean it's what it should. Change, is in our hands. |

You know, a week ago I had Gotoh's website up on this PC, and now I can't find the damn thing.
 Nevermind, found it(well Hosco, but they're the brand's distributor), no 7 string lock nuts though. |
