Detail 01
Left-handed
The tuners wind the opposite direction and mount mirrored. Putting these on a right-handed neck won't work correctly.

GotohLocking Tuners Left Hand - 6 Pack Black
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Six Gotoh locking tuners in black, built for left-handed instruments. A restringing-speed upgrade for lefty players, who have fewer hardware options.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Left-handed guitars needing a tuner replacement or upgrade
- Lefty players who change strings frequently between gigs
- Black-hardware builds where chrome would clash
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Right-handed guitars — the direction is wrong
- Anyone matching gold or chrome hardware
- Players whose tuning issues come from the nut, not the posts
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Locking tuners
String clamps at the post, so you wind almost none. Restringing is quicker and the string can't creep at the post.
Detail 03
6-pack
A complete six-string set in one purchase, so the finish and feel stay consistent across the headstock.
Detail 04
Black finish
Blends with black bridges and hardware. Black coating shows brass wear at the button edges over years of use.
Detail 05
Sold as a set
Buying this to replace a single failed tuner leaves you with five spares.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check your headstock hole diameter and thickness against the bushings before ordering
- 02Strings and any drilling or reaming tools are not part of this
- 03Existing screw holes may not line up — expect to plug and redrill
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What makes a tuner left-handed?
The gearing and mounting are mirrored so the buttons sit correctly and turn the right way on a reversed headstock. Right-hand tuners on a lefty neck tune backwards.
02Do these fit any left-handed guitar?
Fit depends on your headstock's hole diameter, thickness, and screw pattern. Measure yours against the tuners' bushings before committing.
03Will locking tuners fix my tuning problems?
They stop slippage and winding stretch at the post. Binding at the nut or a shifting tremolo needs a different fix.
04Is installation something I can do myself?
Swapping tuners is basic work if the holes match. Mismatched holes mean reaming or plugging and redrilling, which is worth handing to a tech.
