Kluson3-per-Side Tuning Machines Nickel
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Nickel 3-per-side tuners for guitars with three tuners on each side of the headstock — Les Paul style. Replacement or repair part.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing worn or slipping tuners on a 3-a-side headstock
- Restoring a guitar to nickel hardware to match existing parts
- Builders wiring up a set-neck or 3-a-side build
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Strat and Tele headstocks — those need the 6 in-line set
- Anyone wanting locking tuners for fast string changes
- Bass headstocks, which use larger posts and bushings
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
Nickel finish
Warmer and softer-looking than chrome, and it dulls with handling rather than staying mirror-bright.
Detail 03
Sold as a set
Covers the whole headstock, so all six tuners match in feel and finish.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure your existing peghole diameter — vintage and modern bushings differ
- 02Old screw holes may not line up; you may need to plug and redrill
- 03Strings, bushings and press tools are separate purchases
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will these fit my Stratocaster?
No. A Strat headstock is 6 in-line. You need the in-line version, not this 3-per-side set.
02Do I need a luthier to install these?
Not necessarily, but if the peghole size or mounting screw pattern differs from your old tuners, a tech avoids damage to the headstock.
03Are the mounting screws included?
Confirm hardware contents with the seller before ordering; plan on sourcing correct-length screws if yours are stripped.
04Will nickel match my chrome hardware?
Not exactly. Nickel is warmer and slightly duller. Against chrome bridges and pickup covers the difference is visible up close.
