I’ve used them! They’re definitely practical—great for quick string changes. Just make sure your guitar is set up properly to use them effectively!
I’m also looking for the best tuning machines! I’ve heard that Grover and Schaller are top brands. Anyone had experience with those?
Grover tuning machines are solid! Installing them is pretty straightforward if you have a drill and the right bit. Just make sure to measure the hole size.
I just replaced my tuning machines last week! It was a game-changer for my guitar’s stability. Highly recommend locking tuners – they save time during string changes.
That sounds great! Did you find any compatibility issues with your guitar model?
I had a bit of trouble fitting new machines on my vintage guitar. I had to drill new holes. It was risky, but worth it in the end!
Wow, that’s bold! Do you have any tips for someone looking to do a similar upgrade?
I’ve installed tuning machines on a few guitars. Always make sure to really check the measurements before buying! It saves a lot of hassle later.
Great advice! What specific measurements should one pay attention to?
Measure the diameter of the holes and the distance between them! Tools like calipers can help. And, don’t forget to have a good sense of humor if things go wrong!
