Hey fellas; I found this in my box of bits and don't know what it is; it may be a TRS 101 type locking nut a la Floyd Rose. Anyone know for sure?

They can be used on Korean Spectrum type models but the string spacing is a tad off.
Either change the nut or grind out the grooves a bit on the locking nut.
Apart from that a good replacement and can be used as is.

The 42mm fits a lot better than the 43mm. I've tried both.
