Locking nut for Floyd Rose 1000/Special Series – stable tuning for left-handed players

This locking nut is specifically engineered for left-handed guitars equipped with Floyd Rose 1000 Series and Special Series tremolo bridges. Reliable string clamping means you can perform deep divebombs, bends, and expressive whammy work without worrying about tuning slip. The satin chrome finish not only looks sleek, but also resists corrosion over time. The Floyd Rose FR1NL2SC 1000 Series Special Locking Nut R-2 Left is a direct fit for compatible models and comes with necessary mounting hardware for a straightforward replacement.

What sets this nut apart in the locking nut category

Unlike standard guitar nuts, this model is crafted from hardened steel for maximum durability. Because of the left-handed orientation and exact R-2 sizing, it serves as a rare, purpose-built solution for southpaw players needing Floyd Rose double-locking performance.
