Indianrock2020 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 I found some posts here where these were used with easy installation. I know there are cheaper options but my main concern is no drilling or other modifications needed.

Indianrock2020 Posted April 18, 2016 Author Share Posted April 18, 2016 Diagrams show the shaft ( tuner hold diameter ) at 9.8 mm = .3858 inch or about 25/64 inch The thickness of the headstock this is designed for seems to be the same - 9.8mm http://guitar-machine-heads.com/download/C1ffcfe16X12a3c495d85X2f5/GitarrenMechanik_M6Klemmmechanik_Pin.pdf?ITServ=CYb58380X15426c05743XY3bbd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinon2 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Most aftermarket tuners have a mounting screw (these do), or at the very least a post on the mounting surface that needs a small pilot hole to sit in to keep the tuner in place (Sperzel tuners have the post...see below). Finding something that doesn't require putting a hole somewhere will be easier said than done, unless the stock ones have a mounting screw (or post) that just happens to be in the exact same spot.

BigChas52 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I used these on my JTV59 and they were a perfect fit. The screw holes even matched up. I found them at guitarfetish.com.

Indianrock2020 Posted April 18, 2016 Author Share Posted April 18, 2016 The Shallers at Amazon show a screw hole. But I'll also check out the sperzel style. Yeah main thing is that the screw hole is in the same place as the originals. My first image in the first post was the wrong type -- those show a pin, not a screw. If the phillips head screws at the end of each tuning knob ( originals ) can be tightened I might be ok with the existing tuners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
