Nut size

I just bought a neck off of ebay and the guy is saying the width of the neck at the nut is 1 13/16. Does that sound right? If so where can I get a nut that size. I've look at a few places and can't find one. Thanks

How many strings is this neck made for?

Just 4, that's why it doesn't sound right to me.

Hmmm... you're right, that sounds kinda odd. I'd wait and see what the dimension really is before buying a nut for it.

Ya that's what i was going to do. You ever heard of a heal being 2 5/8's

sounds like a 5-string neck.

Here take a look, maybe you can see another hole, because I don't see it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWN%3AIT&rd=1
