Detail 01
Locking tuners
The post clamps the string, so you wind almost nothing. Restringing gets faster and slipping at the post stops.

GotohMLB3-G 3-On-A-Side Locking Tuners 6-Pack Gold
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A six-piece set of Gotoh locking tuners in gold, laid out three per side for a slotted-style pair of three-and-three headstocks.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Upgrading a three-a-side guitar with gold hardware already on it
- Players who restring often and want faster changes
- Builds needing matched gold tuners across both headstock sides
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Six-in-line headstocks — the layout won't match
- Left-handed instruments, which need the mirrored version
- Anyone wanting chrome or black hardware to stay consistent
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
3-on-a-side
Three tuners face one way, three the other. They are not interchangeable between sides.
Detail 03
6-pack
Covers a full six-string guitar in one purchase. No need to buy a second set or match finishes later.
Detail 04
Gold finish
Matches gold bridges and pickup covers. Gold plating wears at contact points faster than chrome or black.
Detail 05
Sold as a set, not a single
If you only broke one tuner, you're buying five spares along with it.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure your headstock hole diameter and depth before ordering — bushings must fit
- 02Strings, screws beyond what's supplied, and any reaming tools are your own
- 03Older guitars may need new screw holes plugged and redrilled
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will these fit my Les Paul?
The 3-on-a-side layout matches that style of headstock, but fit depends on your hole diameter and mounting screw pattern. Measure both before ordering.
02Do locking tuners keep a guitar in tune better?
They mostly remove slippage at the post and stretch-out from excess winds. Tuning stability problems from the nut or bridge won't be solved by tuners.
03Can I use these on a left-handed guitar?
No. Left-handed headstocks need the mirrored set. Gotoh makes a left-hand version separately.
04Is this enough for a whole guitar?
Yes, six tuners covers a standard six-string. Three mount on each side of the headstock.
