I was getting ready to order a set of control covers for my 2018 594 to swap out for the one that is signed by PRSh and decided that wasn't a big enough order so I figured there must be some other geegaw in the MannMade store I need. Sure enough I realized I needed locking tuners for my 2009 Korina McCarty with P90s. So I went to order thinking they were "Kluson" tuners but I noticed that the Gotoh tuners look a lot like the Klusons.

So I turn to the experts here. Kluson or Gotoh for the McSoaparina?
 
As long as what you order has the black top locking screw like the ph2 and ph3 have it won't matter.

I put a set on my McCarty and my ONLY regret is they didn't offer them sooner!

My stock bushings would not come out. I was too afraid of damaging my guitar so I left them in there instead of using the ones that came with tuners. Zero issues, if yours do not come out easily then I suggest you leave em in there.
 
the reason I mention the black locking screw is because gotoh makes a kluson style locking tuner that has their own take on the locking mechanism. I thought it was not a great design. I hated them. Mann has a much better product.

DO IT
 
Thanks. Looks like both have 1/4" shafts but I wasn't sure if the mounting holes were in the same place. I'm not overly worried about putting new holes in the headstock but if the holes are only slightly different then that could be an issue with the new holes slightly overlapping the existing holes.
