Review: Worthy guitar upgrade - I purchased these to replace the tuners on my Epiphone Les Paul Special II. It is an inexpensive guitar and plays pretty good. The factory tuners were not the best though. I saw several reviews on these and decided to give them a shot. I did have to open the holes up for the tuner shanks to I believe 10mm. This was the hardest part in that you could really screw up your guitar it the drill grabs or wrecks the finish. Drilling may not be necessary on all guitars. The original tuners had 2 alignment holes and these only have one in a different radius. Again, what to do... People on YouTube filled the extra holes with pieces on toothpicks. I did the same and it turned out nice enough. I touched up the heads with some blue Sharpie. You may need to drill a hole for each alignment screw too. Just make sure to carefully align the tuner before drilling the alignment holes and don't drill through the front. Put a piece of tape around you drill as a depth gauge. Once installed the tuners work great and look great! They are a lot smoother than the cheap factory ones. when tuning. They seem to hold the guitar in tune better as well. It was a fun improvement and I enjoy modding inexpensive guitars and making them my own. I put the money were i find the value and aesthetics. If you have an old guitar kicking around or a new one that is tough to tune, give these tuners a try!
Review: Amazing drop in upgrade for under$40 - I have been playing for less than a year. I was extremely frustrated that my inexpensive Ibanez wouldn't stay in tune. Every day I would pick it up and and every string was flat. I would tune it and start to play. After 5 minutes, I would realize it was out of tune again. Every string would be sharp, so I would tune them back to exactly where they were when I started. I was thinking about buying a new guitar, but a friend suggested I upgrade the tuners. I didn't want to spend $70 -100 to upgrade a $200 guitar so I decided to try these based on the desertcart reviews.....Wow. what a difference in quality from the stock tuners! The spindle on the old one jiggle around when you shake them, but there is no play in the Gotoh tuners. NONE! Installation was a breeze. They dropped right in and screws lined up perfectly. Now my guitar stays in tune for days! It makes learning guitar much more enjoyable! I liked them so much I bought a second set for my wife's Fender! Worth every penny!
