They will fit- after you re-size peghead holes to 10mm or 25/64 (9.9MM actually). I recommend a reamer.

Customs have regular single screw Grover's, which are 13/32(10mm compatible). Epi's with Kluson style tuners have 11/32(8.7mm) and would need resizing to work.

You will need to drill new holes for the mounting screws, I would recommend putting some tape on the drill bit to act a depth gauge so you don't accidently drill through the headstock.
