GOTOH Locking Tuners for 2015 Traditional

[TeknicalXtacy]

FYI

Got a set of the GOTOH Vintage locking tuners for my 2015 Traditional. Looking forward to putting these on. Luv the guitar and don't mind the GForce - mine works well. But Looking forward to giving it a more traditional look.

Actually will be taking the guitar to a Luthier even though they are pretty simple to install. Jst moved from AZ about 6 months ago and want to have my Les Paul and Strat given the once over.

GOTOH SD90-MG-SL-N
Nickel plated with greenish tuning keys
15:1 tuning ratio
GOTOH Magnum Lock

Vintage 11/32" headstock bushing holes required. Will not fit guitars with screw in bushings without using conversion bushings(sold separately).

Includes instructions, bushings and screws
GOTOH Magnum Lock is a self locking system by using string tension. Tuning stability of new Magnum Lock is taken to a next higher level with the introduction of new smaller string holes on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd string posts.

I have the gotoh magnum lock tuners on one of my guitars a Vintage v100 a Les Paul type guitar (my first!) Can't remember if they are the SD 90 ones..but probably are. They look just like kluson tuners with the greenish keys. I'm very satisfied with them.
I was about to change the tuners my self (the original Wilkinson tuners held the tuning well, but vibrated annoyingly-in both sets I had) but then bought it to a "tech" to change because I was afraid of bushing sizes so I preferreda professional touch. Turns out the "tech" put a nice big gash in the headstock trying to remove the old bushings...and it turned out that the new tuners fit well in the old bushings anyway...and I ended up paying for it anyway, he just offered a bit of discount from 70 to 50...needless to say I'll never take any of my guitars to him ever again!
At the time I remember I was pretty angry, but I thought to myself "thank God it's not a Gibson"!

Not worried about Luither, he actually makes guitars for a living and is an authorized Gibson repair dealership. And these tuners are basically drop ins. You do need to screw them in, but I think he can handle it.

I bought the Gotoh SD510 set with the magnum lock, they came with the bushings, tools, screws, etc..
