Paul's Guitar SE - Just New Tuners...

[Draconomics]

Here we go, finally got the tuner replacement for my Paul's Guitar SE. I had ordered some Gotoh SG381's, but then I discovered that there was finish chips around the screw holes, so if I used those you'd see those holes all the time (eek). I instead ended up with a set of Gotoh SD90s. Basically a Kluson style but with the mag lock system. Really simple to use, way better than a post locking Kluson set I had bumming around so I'd reccoment using those for a replacement. FYI, its probably a given that no matter what tuners you use to replace the stock ones, you will likely have to rout the holes larger. I just used a dremel sanding drum (the 1/4" ones fit in the hole perfectly).

Eeek.

Tuner comparison. Gold one is an actual kluson. The real one seems to weigh more, a bit smoother turning.

Installed finally! Yay!

Well done, oh and killer TRC

That looks fantastic. I’m so happy that you could hide the damage. No one will ever know

Gracias! BTW, the TRC you can get from this place. He's got a bunch of different PRS style TRC's. Once I saw the aqua finish on this my mind thought "sea dragon".

Well done! Did you get the Gotohs at Stew Mac?

Thanks! Those I bought the tuners from reverb.com. Not a bad price either.
