Strong match

Who this is for

  • Les Paul or SG style guitars with three tuners per side
  • Players who change strings often and want faster restrings
  • Guitars that drift sharp or flat after bends

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Strat and Tele headstocks, which need six-in-line tuners
  • Players wanting gold or black hardware to match existing parts
  • Anyone unwilling to drill or ream a headstock if holes differ

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.

Locking tuners

The string clamps at the post, so you skip wraps. Less slip and quicker string changes.

Detail 03

6-pack

A full set for one guitar. No need to buy left and right halves separately.

Detail 04

Chrome finish

Bright silver. Matches chrome bridges and pickup covers; will look off against gold or black hardware.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Measure your existing peghole diameter and post height before ordering
  2. 02Screw holes may not line up with the old tuners; plugging and redrilling is common
  3. 03No strings, bushings guarantee, or install tools implied in the box

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Will these fit my Les Paul?

They are made for 3-on-a-side headstocks like a Les Paul. Check your peghole diameter and rear screw placement first, since aftermarket and older guitars vary.

02Do locking tuners actually keep a guitar in tune?

They remove slack from string windings, which is a common tuning-drift source. They do not fix a binding nut, a worn bridge saddle, or unstable strings.

03How many tuners come in the set?

Six, enough for one six-string guitar.

04Can I install these myself?

It is a screwdriver job if the holes match. If they do not, you need to ream the pegholes or fill and redrill screw holes.
