Guitar Accessory
Posted April 25, 2010

Does anyone know what this guitar accessory is called....?
I was trying out a new guitar at Sam Ash and I noticed that it had a sort of clamp right above where the neck ends. It gripped the strings where they were, so that the guitar wouldn't go out of tune. Does anyone know what this is called, and where i can get one for my guitar?
They're called a locking nut.
It's used a lot in guitars that have floating bridges, like the Floyd Rose, because guitars that have floating bridges go out of tune more often, those locking nuts are necessary.
Unfortunately you cannot just buy locking nuts and just place them on any guitar. Take for example a Les Paul, which just uses the standard nut and has no holes to put the locking nuts in.
Or it might be a capo :/
