Hi -

Do you want Rod size or Tuning Nut size? The sizes youve quoted are more commonly rod sizes.

I think the TUNING NUTS are 3/16", arent they...? I believe they are 3/4" long.

The RODS are 7/64 (just under an 1/8"), as Jim Palenscar said.

Here's the Emmons catalogue link:

The tuning nuts are the part labelled R

The George L website lists two rod sizes, 1/8" or 3/32" and several length options. I am researching this information for another party so unfortunately I do not have access to an Emmons guitar. Could the 3/32" nuts be adapted, or should the next larger size be used?

The 3/32" size will work but they need to be drilled out a titch.
