ricoustic101 Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Greetings. Just won an eBay auction for a used Line 6 Variax. When it arrives, would I be able to swap out the locking tuning pegs currently on my Fender Standard Stratocaster and put them on the Variax 600? Just wondering if they'll fit and are compatible. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie_Watt Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 I think the answer is yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricoustic101 Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 UPDATE: ACtually, they DON'T fit. On the back of the headstock by each hole are two tiny holes where two little "positioning pegs" would fit. The "Strat" tuners are too big (their positioning pegs go past the hole) and on the Strat the Variax pegs are too small. BTW, this is not a complaint about the Variax, just an observation.

ricoustic101 Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 Actually, will let my local luthier drill some holes. Not something I would want to try to attempt on my own. I may turn it into a 12-string headstock by accident. ;-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricoustic101 Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 Luthier did a great job. Locking pegs look and work great! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie_Watt Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Great! Locking tuners are a real nice upgrade. They make string changes a breeze and they stay in tune better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
