I had these installed in a 70s Fender Mustang neck; expecting a direct fit. Of course I can not confirm if a 70s Stratocaster neck is going be the same situation here. I would imagine that they should be the same; but the mustang had cheaper tuners with plastic knobs so they might indeed be a different animal altogether. It cost me quite a bit of money by the time the Luthier was done because he had to ream the ferrule holes out (from both sides) as well as re-fill the screw holes in with broken off tooth picks and super glue so he could re-drill new pilot holes for the screws. The old ferrules were a different size. The tunes did fit although they are Shorter than the originals. You can still get 3 winds on the low E string - barely. Maybe these are for reissues with thinner necks? I do not know. The quality seems very good; and they are working well. The chrome finish is nice. They look and work great; much better than the originals. Their construction appears different from the old ones. For me the extra and unexpected cost was worth it.

These fit perfectly and I hesitate to criticize, especially at this price, but the chrome finish is inconsistent and imperfect. Two of them have an orange peel effect as in a poor paint job. Plus, I didn't realize they are slotted ends rather than the hole, so they're more difficult to use, for me anyway. I give them 3 stars for fit and function, as they do work well and are very reasonably priced. That I don't like the split versus hole for attaching strings is my own issue, not their's. Nevertheless, I've already ordered another type to replace these. Overall, if you take pride in your guitar as I do, I just can't recommend these tuners.

The tuners are well made but they are not the same size as the original Schaller 70's tuners. The bushings are a larger diameter. That is not too big a problem since the tuner holes can be reamer from 11/32" to 10mm. The bigger problem is the stamped backs are longer and have to be filed to fit together. This is a real pain. I cannot understand why Fender does not have common centre to centre distances on their guitars. This would greatly simplify tuner replacement.

These are very nice for the price. I have an original 1977 Stratocaster here and these look to be an exact copy at first glance, but there are some differences that are only possible to see by measuring. The shafts are just a bit shorter than the originals. The bushings are 10mm, like conversion bushings, so I am assuming these are different too. I am not pulling my original bushings for a comparison, for obvious reasons, maybe some one else has? These do work great and look the part. I got this set to install on a 1979 Stratocaster that I am working on at the moment. I have no neck, so purchased an All parts LMO 70's big headstock, bullet truss rod neck to use on this body. FYI the All parts neck I got was drilled for vintage Kluson style tuners, so fitting these was a PITA. I had to enlarge headstock holes and file the tuner covers down to get everything in, even then they are in the wrong place on the neck, but this is not the fault of these tuners.Vollständige Rezension lesen

Better than any locking tuner, you just have to measure the string to the second peg above the one you're using, cut it and put it in. When you get to the unwound ones, clip a little shorter (can't tell you how to measure, I figured it out by trial and error. I would estimate 3 wraps by sort of wrapping it loosely, then cut). Perfect match to the vintage F tuners made on the great strats of yore, you can age them to match by fuming the finish with muriatic acid. Place the tuners on an upside down bowl in a piece of tuperware with an inch or so of acid. Seal the lid. Place in a bath of hot water, and the acid will heat and evaporate. After 10 - 15 minutes check the level of chrome removal. You can always do more, but you can't easy put chrome back on. Rinse with cold water when you're done. RAWK ON!!!!Vollständige Rezension lesen
