Guyker 6 Inline Vintage Guitar Lock String Tuners – Locking Tuning Key Pegs Machine Heads Replacement for ST TL Style Electric, Folk or Acoustic Guitars – Chrome

I've been building guitars for 15 years, and have used every tuning machine brand and model under the sun. These tuners, specifically the Pro version, are among the best I've ever used. The gears feel like a $400 set of Waverly machines. They are astonishingly smooth and have less backlash than 90% of name brand machines. For the price, they are BY FAR the best value for the money. I will be using these before Grover, Wilkinson, Gotoh, Kluson etc. They perform as well as Hipshot tuners for almost 1/4 of the price. My son and I built a guitar for him, and I bought these because I was wanting to save some money. I just figured these would get me by until I could save up for some nice Kluson machines, but these tuners feel even better than the Kluson's and will be a permanent fixture in my shop from now on. I've already recommended and installed them for several clients since then, and they all love them. The finish is very nice, as well. No obvious plating defects or burrs. Very clean and smooth finish. The locking mechanism is well machined. The tolerances aren't absolutely perfect, but they're good enough to work as if they are perfect. Other budget brands have WAY too much slop and do not effectively lock the strings. I'm 100% confident in these locking mechanisms ability to hold the string in place. We've had no issues with slipping, and we've played the guitar hard and well for about a month now. Finally, the dimensions are perfect. No odd sizes, holes in the wrong spot, stamping/machining inconsistencies, etc. The dimensions and layout are exactly what you'd expect and match their spec sheet. I really cannot recommend these enough. I applaud the team who were behind these. They did an excellent job and clearly cared about the end result, which really shows. It's not often a budget brand releases something of this level of quality, so I have a ton of respect when they do. It's an incredible value for the price, and I could not be happier with my purchase. Time will tell how durable these are, and I will update my review if any issues do arise, but I expect that I won't need to do that.

These tuners were a perfect fit for my Classic Vibe Jaguar. Installation was quick and easy. Locking tuners make restrings so much easier so this is a great upgrade over the stock vintage tuners. My low E string tuner was not tuning smoothly but Guyker replaced it quickly and free of charge, they're a great company to deal with. I'd say overall the tuners are not as high quality as higher priced tuners. The turning mechanism sticks out a little far and sometimes get turned in my gigbag leading to an out of tune string. However for the cheap price I don't mind relocking a string every now and then.

High quality tuners that mounted up quickly, and fit with zero issues. I would buy these again, no problems. If there were anything wonky I would have sent back.

Bought these to replace a set of non-locking Fender vintage tuners on one of my guitars. These were an easy drop in replacement. For yeas I used Grover tuners, until Grover stopped making their own tuning machines and then I switched to Schaller's. A couple of years ago, I installed a set of Gotoh locking vintage tuners on a Strat and was very impressed by the fit and finish as well as the functioning and stability of the Gotoh's. For this guitar, I wanted something better than the original Fender tuners, but didn't want to spend upwards of $80 for Gotoh's or Schallers. So for the low price, I decided to try a set of these. Although these are not up to the Gotoh of Schallar standards they went on easy, work quite well and look nice. We'll see over time how the finish holds up, but for now I say buy them without hesitation. *** 5 month update. These tuners continue to work and look great. They have remained firm and hold tune very well. Very happy with these.

Excellent tuners- fit perfectly and worked as well as more expensive locking tuners I've bought previously.

These are a steal for the price! Nice build quality and smooth turning. However, you need to check your center to center spacing! My Hohner Strat neck was 26mm. Had to do some creative mounting because the a couple of the screw heads crashed into each other. (See spec diagram above.) Recommend 29-30mm minimum. Would buy again with that caveat.

These absolutely do NOT fit a Squier Paranormal Offset Telecaster neck. The ferrules are too big to fit in the holes. I could force them with a rubber hammer (LOL!) and possibly crack the headstock or I could ream them out manually (also LOL!). And I could spend 1/4 the price of these tuners on replacement gold ferrules (the existing ones are chrome, which obviously don't go with the gold and blue of these tuners, which is the whole point of them), but I cannot be sure if the shafts on these tuners would fit the smaller off-brand ferrules. Instead I am left with tuners that would aesthetically only work on the one guitar they definitely won't fit. Serves me right for believing the Amazon AI tool when I SPECIFICALLY ASKED IT if these would fit this particular Squier model! Sure, I should have measured. But in 2025 it is not unreasonable to "believe" the product page on Amazon.com has the right answer. Won't be making that mistake again. And since these should be drop-in replacements for Classic Vibe Squiers, which use the SAME size ferrules as the Paranormal... Be careful out there! I don't know who Guyker thinks their audience is for their cheaply made Chinese products, but people who buy actual Fender don't buy this junk. It's us Squier modders who do. Get your act together, Guyker! You too Amazon with your unreliable AI.

Swapped over some cheap old tuners on my partscaster, took about 15 minutes including getting new strings on it - fantastic bit of kit

Bought these as i felt the price is good enough for locking tuners. Then realized since these are vintage design (looks better than modern though), I had to drill my headstock and buy some additional adapters to fit them in. But once installed its working far better than my stock tuners. Note that even with locking tuners, the guitar will go out of tune but will keep it in tune much longer.

Installées sur une strat Squier, elles n’ont rien à envier à celles de marques plus prestigieuses et plus coûteuses. Elles sont efficaces, précises et du plus bel effet. Pour un tel rapport qualité /prix, pas d’hésitation !

These dropped right into the neck for my Jaguar. I was waiting on a set of Gotoh/Fender Vintage locking tuners that had a delivery date that kept getting pushed back, and I just wanted something with lockers to tide me over and get everything back together. I wasn't expecting much, but was pleasantly surprised. The bushings went in without too much drama, I gently used a small c-clamp to press them in evenly. The tuners all lock and turn nicely, they seem to stay in tune, and they look great. Installing the units to the neck was a cinch as everything lined up perfectly, and the screws all went in nicely. I'm not sure the Gotoh tuners would be that much of an upgrade, at more than twice the price. I'm not in any hurry to replace these, that's for sure. It's nice having the lock on a knob too, it makes string switches a breeze, and no more fussing with multiple string wraps around the peg. Stick the string in fairly taunt, clamp it, and then turn it until its in tune. Makes me wonder why I've not gone to this style years ago.

Verry good tuners.
