Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Locking tuners for 3-per-side headstocks, chrome finish. For players who change strings often or use vibrato and want tuning to hold.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Guitars with a vibrato bridge that drift out of tune
- Players who restring frequently and want faster string changes
- Replacing worn stock tuners on a 3-per-side headstock
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- 6-in-line headstocks like most Strats and Teles
- Players happy with their current tuning stability
- Anyone unwilling to drill or modify mounting holes if they 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.
Detail 02
16:1 gear ratio
16 turns of the button for one post revolution. Fine enough for precise pitch without feeling slow.
Detail 03
3-per-side layout
Fits Les Paul, SG, and similar headstocks with three tuners on each side. Not a 6-in-line set.
Detail 04
Chrome finish
Matches chrome bridges and hardware. Will look off against gold or black hardware on the same guitar.

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 built for 3-per-side headstocks like a Les Paul. Confirm your post hole diameter and screw hole spacing first, since older or import guitars vary.
02Do locking tuners keep a guitar in tune better?
They reduce slippage at the post, which is a common cause of drift, especially with vibrato use. They do not fix nut binding or bridge issues.
03How many string wraps do I need?
Almost none. The string clamps at the post, so you pull it through, lock it, and trim.
04Is this a full set of six?
Yes, it is a 3-per-side set covering a six-string headstock.
