• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

They seem about the same width as 6105, but maybe not quite as tall. Perhaps a slightly ground down 6105.

And they are currently no different than an R9, R0, R7, etc. Years ago, they were smaller on R8's and R7's I believe. Late 90's maybe?

Here are Dunlop 6105 specs to compare:

Dunlop 6105 Accu-Fret® fretwire. The 6105 series is a tall and narrow jumbo wire for players that want more exact intonation. Measures .055" tall and .090" wide. 18% nickel/silver hard alloy.
