Inelastic x-ray scattering (IXS) was used to study the Cu-O bond-stretching vibrations in the static stripe phase compound La1.48Nd0.4Sr0.12CuO4. It was found that the intrinsic width in Q-space of the previously reported huge anomalous phonon softening and broadening is approximately 0.08 r.l.u. HWHM. A detailed comparison was also made to inelastic neutron scattering (INS) studies, which reported a two-peak lineshape with a "normal" and an "anomalous" phonon peaks. The "normal" branch in the neutron data seems to be mostly suppressed in the high resolution IXS data. Otherwise the agreement between the INS and the IXS was excellent.
