Thanks Jon.

Are these for the Sho-Bud rods? I have no idea what the size is. I have always thought they were a standard 1/8 rod.

You'll need to figure out which rods you have in order to choose between #4 & #5 nut.

All Sho~Buds use a #5 tuning nut unless someone has modified it with smaller rods. The only thing that you need to know is the length of the nut as Sho~Bud used about 5 different lengths over the years.
