I use 10 to 52 Ernie Ball strings on everything from 24" to 25.5". I also use them with a wound G on my short scale acoustic. They're so good for just about anything you throw at them!
I bought the GOTOH MAGNUM LOCK (MG) in the Fender Guaranteed box (design difference is that there is no locking wheel behind the headstalk) and using the factory bushings installed on the Squier 60's Vibe Stratocaster-they drop right in, keeping the vintage look. Thanks for your install video!
Glad i found this, didn’t want to have to modify the guitar like drilling out the holes to 10mm or drill new holes to get locking tuners. Keeping that exact same looking vintage button and post is awesome too. Thanks mate
Those bushings are 8.8mm and 9.2mm. Most vintage style uses 8.8mm bushings but some more recent fenders use ping tuners which have 9.2mm bushings. The only manufacturer that I’ve seen that makes those bushings is Gotoh.
Oooh just what I'm after; I have a Baja tele with those "put-in-from-the-top" tuners and I hate them! You need 3 hands to restring them sometimes, especially the treble strings... Seriously considering getting a set of these, thanks for the vid :)
I love the vintage tuners for the simple fact they look abit smarter cos the string is inside it and you don’t catch the strings or your finger on the ends of clothing.
Hey Jack! I licked and subscribed because I have the same affliction as you have, a serious case of GAS, Lol! I’m a diehard believer in locking tuners. I have a new Fender Eric Clapton “Blackie” Strat on order. Putting the standard Fender locking tuners was going to require some surgery because it comes with vintage tuners. I found out today from a Luthier I trust, that the Gotoh vintage style locking tuners were the solution. Your video just demonstrated how nicely they fit! Thank you very much for your video, I enjoyed it very much! And remember….only those of us that have GAS truly understand what that is, Lol! 😎👍🎸
I would love to put these on my Squier tele - I never grew to like the Ping style split tuners, but did not want to replace them with modern style machines, I will check those specs out. Thank you (from England) for a very helpful video!
Great Video, been desperately searching for Vintage Fender Style Tuners that are locking. I also use the Planet waves ones on a absurdly modded Schecter, they are brilliant. If they Had Made alternatives to the grovers I would have Chosen them, so Clean. *Edit: If Hipshot only sold their UMP (Universal mounting Plate) sepeartely... IT would be a good send.
@@StuartPeel Theres some sort of idiotic elitist thought that if you re a wimp if you re not using heavy gauge strings (11s and above). I prefer to have my fingers okay for the next 70 years and dont really bother about how wimpy I seem to bet lol
8s would feel like razor blades to me lol. The smallest I'll go on a strat is 9.5, which I find to be a perfect balance of bendability and strong tone. But even still, they can feel weird at times. I have 11s or 12s on everything else I own so going to the strat is weird sometimes if I haven't played it in a while. But 11s on a strat can be painstaking.
When you pull the thing thru with a locking tuner pull the string up bend it up then lock it in place…however it make it easy saying the string if your doing mod on you guitar …you can sae a heap on string s i dont know how much ‘tuing stability ‘you will actually get but hey its a gas….jumping jack !lol😂take care mate love on you bro
I don't claim they are the best, but I like the old style tuners. For me it's a nostalgia thing. But you may have converted me. Close enough to old school but more precise.
I can't find this style with the locking wheel in the back. Now you have to use a screwdriver on the top of the peg while you turn the head. I suppose it preserves the look but it's inconvenient at a live show. Thomann wants 115.00 plus shipping. I found a NOS set on Reverb for 64.00 all in.
@@BipityBopity93 I'm sure @Tony M can give you a good answer but he is my response: It really depends what type of tuners are currently installed on your Squier.

@@HollowRick Totally agree Jamie. Real vintage guitars should not be touched! But all new guitars whether reissue or not should all have locking tuners. It's like a day and night difference, especially for ease and stability. Enjoy!
hey man. nice tuners. i have these in gold. i LOVE gotoh. the 2 sets of bushings sized differently are conversion bushings. the larger in diameter are ones for if you wanted to install these on a guitar that has larger holes like the sperzel ones.
Gotoh really are great. But I've really noticed recently on my 2014 Gibson, where I also installed Gotoh locking tuners, that tuning stability has only improved a bit BECAUSE of the NUT! The nut is also a key element and I'm slowly replacing all of the cheaper, plastic ones with Tusq nuts which are really sweet. Great lubrication *giggity*
I had vintage tuners on my Clapton Strat and they were perfectly stable. The great advantage of vintage tuners over other types is you don't have to tie the string to the pole -- you just pop it in and you go. So if you do it right, and that's a no-brainer, you just don't need a locking set. I replaced the Grovers on my Gibsons with Sperzel locking tuners, as well as tbe original Fender pegs on my Strat. For those guitars it was quite an improvement, as I don't have to go through the hassle of tying that knot.
Nice strat!! I just ordered some tuners similar to that for my modern player tele, I can’t stand the sloppy vintage style tuners that are no fun to change strings. I have fender lockers on my American strat and I believe every guitar should have lockers
I couldn't agree with you more. If it's an actual real strat from the 50s or 60s, then I wouldn't touch a thing. But newer guitars should have locking tuners. Ease and stability!
okay so I have a squire 70s hss black strat and I was wondering if I changed tuners with out removing the bushing would it still work or do I need to have the right mesuements??
Have you tried installing these on a newer style Strat? My American pro has Fender locking tuners on it already but I don’t like how modern they look. I’m interested in getting a set of these to maintain tuning stability but give it a more vintage look.

They are really good. I've put them on another strat because I like them so much. They're smooth and great for tuning stability. They certainly have my approval.
I don't understand why you would buy a vintage re-issue Strat and then proceed to remove one of the very things that makes it vintage-like. Will you be upgrading the trem to a two-point soon? For what its worth I have a few AVRI Fenders with vintage tuners (Strat, Tele, Jazzmaster and Jaguar) and have no tuning stability problems at all - In fact my 52 AVRI Tele is probably the most stable of all my guitars. In fact I'm presently in the process of converting a modern Mexi Strat to vintage tuners and a six screw vintage trem ... :)
Thanks for the review. I just got these exact tuners and some Graph Tech saddles installed on my custom shop strat and my tuning stability is pretty bad. Is there a break-in period for these tuners ? Also, should I maybe use nut sauce on the pegs ? I also have this weird almost buzzing sound when you hit the low E open. The intonation seems to be fine ? Ideas ? Fwiw, I never had any issues with tuning stability with my stock vintage tuners.
I've never experienced a 'break in' period with Gotoh locking tuners. It could be several things. You didn't have tuning or fret buzz problems before the tuner and saddle change correct? Maybe you need to raise the saddle on the low e-string a bit. Double check the intonation. One thing I always do is blocking off the tremelo because I never use it. That helps. But if you do use the tremelo check your neck relief and perform a full setup. With new tuners AND new saddles the guitar might just need a good overall look over and setup again. Hope this helps in any way.
Never had any tuning or fret buzz issues until the tuners and saddles. I could abuse the tremolo and it would still stay in tune. But it’s going out of tune playing normally. The EADG strings go flat. I’m also tuned to eb with 10-46s. Could it be maybe the fact that I have locking tuners now, it doesn’t have enough tension ? Where before I had several wraps and more tension therefore giving me better tuning stability ? Also, it should be noted that nothing else was touched on the guitar other than the saddles for action and intonation and of course the tuners themselves.
I used to live in Garmisch. I was just searching for a review on these tuners as ALL mine on my cort acoustic packed up one by one within about 2 weeks of each other????? designed to fail I wonder
Hi Lucas. Bought them online from Thomann, Europe's biggest instrument retailer. www.thomann.de/de/gotoh_sd91_mg_t_n.htm?r=app You might need to change the language 😉
I don't get why people always say that locking tuners are such a huge time saver....unless your job is changing strings all day, who cares if it takes an extra minute??!! are we this lazy these days that we will spend upwards of 100 to upgrade perfectly good tuners so we can save a few minutes? really? Change the strings every month or so and need to save time? crazy.
I had to stop buying ernie ball strings as I've finally decided they make them to break after 5 or 6 large drops of tension over a week or so. I like how gibson brite wire 5 pack gives you 2 extra B and E string. I think it's 26$
Stick to the guitar you started with? What video were you watching? It's the same guitar the whole way through. I added some examples at the end to show the benefit of locking tuners. And I mentioned several times how they perform. Try actually watching the full video and not just skipping through it.
"tuner heads" (and much later the likewise "wrong" Radio Heads) as "Rundfunkradioempfangsgeräts-Kopf": "Poof!" (And _anything_ about guitsrs tied into the Jehova-sect and/or any other madness.
With locking tuners?? I've never seen or done that. And I've never had any problems with tuning stability. Even on my Les Paul tuning down to A doesn't cause any problems. So just pulling through and tightening works absolutely fine. That's actually the whole point of locking tuners, so that you don't have winds around the peg which causes the string to to shift with tuning and bending. Or are you talking about normal tuners?
With staggered tunners you should be able to remove the string trees, that will help with the tuning, less friction.
I use 10 to 52 Ernie Ball strings on everything from 24" to 25.5".
I also use them with a wound G on my short scale acoustic. They're so good for just about anything you throw at them!
how do you get them with a wound g?

Stick to the guitar you started with? What video were you watching? It's the same guitar the whole way through. I added some examples at the end to show the benefit of locking tuners. And I mentioned several times how they perform. Try actually watching the full video and not just skipping through it.
"tuner heads" (and much later the likewise "wrong" Radio Heads) as "Rundfunkradioempfangsgeräts-Kopf": "Poof!" (And _anything_ about guitsrs tied into the Jehova-sect and/or any other madness.

Dude, you should really learn how to put strings on properly ... Low E string should get 1 or 2 turns around the peg
With locking tuners?? I've never seen or done that. And I've never had any problems with tuning stability. Even on my Les Paul tuning down to A doesn't cause any problems. So just pulling through and tightening works absolutely fine. That's actually the whole point of locking tuners, so that you don't have winds around the peg which causes the string to to shift with tuning and bending. Or are you talking about normal tuners?
Basement GAS You did it right I don’t know what this guy is talking about
@@bradenrocha9067 Thanks for confirming. Thought I was going crazy there for a second 😂
@Greg Combe Dude, you should really learn what you’re talking about before you give advice
