Review: They sold all my problems. The strings were slipping through my old locking note. The new one is great and fits the guitar neck perfectly.
Review: So my nephew got a Jackson JS32 Dinky for <$300 bucks for Christmas. It is made in China so I thought it would not be that great until I played it, what a great feel, sound and action. Well, it is made in China so sure enough it has some issues, one of which being the nut is made of cheap metal. He had one of the screws strip out one of the holes so I purchased this from desertcart. This R3 fits "most" Jackson guitars but if in doubt go to the manufactures website and get the radius and width of the nut on your guitar and then buy the correct one. In this case, the Jackson had the 12" radius so I knew right away it was the R3 given the chart. I received the nut in the retail packaging, see pictures. I took some side by side pics to show the difference. I think it did change the string spacing a tiny bit but I did not even notice the difference until I looked back at the pictures. The bottom line is it worked great on this guitar, and cheaper than anywhere else. I recommend. Oh, and this is one of the easiest repair jobs you will ever do.

*by A***R on 21 October 2021*

I've tried other locking nuts and the parts were cheaply made; poor tolerances, sharp edges, sub-standard material. The OFR locking nut is really the way to go. A bit pricey, but I know it will last with no issues.
