BryanMichael Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Hello all, Variax Standard (Black) owner here - anyone replaced the tuning machines with a set of locking tuners? Any recommendations for some that are direct replacements (drag-n-drop) that work well? Thx. -b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NBell Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Any locking tuners will work as they are the same dimensions. However, for Variax the dimensions are pretty standard. Taking a look at brands such as Grover, or D'Addario (for example) you'd want to choose an "In-line" set, and they should snug right in. Keep in mind of the pattern of the screws when deciding on a set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmichaelgibson Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I replaced mine in my Variax Standard just a few months ago. I had to do a little trial and error to find ones that just dropped in. I wound up finding these that fit perfectly: http://www.ebay.com/itm/262052785759 If you get some, look for ones with 10mm pin spacing, 2 pin, 6 in-line tuners 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
