    I have been watching you for a long time Dave, I have never seen maybe one time if that that you were not able to fix the guitar. Health issues are a bummer. Sorry to hear that you’re going through stuff. I am on day 95 post stem cell bone marrow transplant Seem to be doing OK. I was not able to play the base for about a month month and a half. I was so shaky from the chemo. But things are looking up. I keep looking for new videos from you, but if I don’t see new ones, I revisit the old favorites. Get better and keep on keeping on. It’s all we got cheers😊

    If those are Gotohs of a particular locking variety all you do is turn them so the hole is perpendicular to the string, thread the string and spin the tuner button with your power tuner button spinner. The tuner eventually grabs the string and self tightens. Easy peasy!

    I replaced the modern tuners on 2 of my guitars with the Fender "Classic Gear" 2-pin tuners that mount like a modern tuner but have the vintage boxy tuner covers, vintage tuner posts and vintage tuner keys. They don't look as clean as atrue vintage tuner, but I really dig them for function.

    Yeah, nothing wrong with those tuners. You just have to know how to use them and I admit, it’s not all that intuitive. The tendency is to want to turn the posts as you would some PRS tuners, but it’s the opposite. You have to hold the post stationary (screwdriver or just a coin) and turn the pegs. Tighten the string and it locks automatically. Loosen the string and it comes out automatically. Sometimes ya just gotta look for instructions.

  • @alexaguado4854
    @alexaguado4854 12 днів тому

    Dave is right. The Gotoh SD91MG are the worst. I bought them bc the description was vintage style locking tuners. They are complete pain and still have th sharp string end sticking out. It's not like the slotted vintage style at all.

  • @AndyK.23
    @AndyK.23 13 днів тому +1

    Those tuners are annoying. But you don't need tools. You use the strings to hold the tops of the tuners while turning the tuning keys. That's how you unlock them, or lock them. To lock new strings, hold the string taught as you turn the tuning key - they catch automatically when the tops screw down and hold the strings. Know what I mean?
