Fender Locking Guitar Tuners, Set of 6, Chrome, Stratocaster and Telecaster, Modern Style, Staggered Height, Mounting Hardware Included

Just fitted and went on like a dream. Direct fit upgrade over the original non-locking versions. Very simple to operate. Don't over-tighten; there's no need as the string grip is firm with finger tightnessAlso, the turn ratio of 18:1 is better than the non-lockers at 14:1 so more precise tuning available.It's 22 nov so will have to see how tuning stability fares over a while, but that's the main reason I got them; to minimise slippage.Very quick to change strings and tune up though. Not that it takes 4ever anyhoo 😀 but deffo a bonus if u need to at a gig.In addition, I got these for a bargain £35.99 because I already had a gift voucher to apply so happy days.

Top quality locking tuners from Fender,there are cheaper locking tuners that do the job well but I have a made in USA Telecaster and so wanted the genuine article with the Fender logo on them.They work perfectly with a nice smooth operation and perfect gear ratio,they also look the part in the chrome finish.I like them so much that I have bought another set for my second made in USA Telecaster.Very pleased.

I’m a huge fan of these Fender locking tuners. I’ve bought these several times, to upgrade the tuners on Strats with trem bridges. With any modern USA Fender Strat (1990s +, in my experience), it’s a very easy and quick upgrade. But these sets do contain 3 short post and 3 long post tuners, I prefer 4 short and 2 long for optimum break angle from the nut (see side view photo), so I tend to buy 2 sets, then assemble 4 short & 2 long from the 2 sets. I’d prefer it if Fender offered a staggered set of 4&2, instead of 3&3.

Perfect!

I have a 1997 Standard American Stratocaster and they were very easy to install - just a simple straight swap. The only tool required is a 10mm spanner. They also look fantastic. From the front they look exactly the same as my original tuners. I only installed them yesterday, but so far the ease of string change and tuning stability of the guitar is vastly improved.I didn't need to remove either of my roller string trees. I was glad about that because I didn't way to have to remove one and leave an ugly screw hole visible. Despite me fitting the staggered tuners, both string trees are still engaged with the strings (maybe slight less so because of some of the shallower angles that resulted from fitting the new tuners), so their presence is still useful.A few points - I had assumed they were made in USA, and was a bit disappointed to see "made in korea" on the packaging. Quality seems perfectly OK and this doesn't concern me, but the seventy odd quid I paid for the tuners is certainly a "made in the USA" price! I've deducted a star or two from my review as a result.A word of warning - if you use a wall hanger, you might find that the tightening screw on the rear of the lowest tuner rests on it when the guitar is hanging. DO NOT allow this to happen as I'm sure it will get damaged, distorted or snap off over time! You'll need to source a different wall hanger that doesn't clash, or use a floor stand. I'm going back to my floor stand for now until I can find a suitable wall hanger.

I’ve fitted these to my 2022 player series Stratocaster and they were a drop in replacement. It took about 10 minutes to swap them.I went with the staggered tuners for the break angle especially on the G stringString changes are a breeze and they look good

I am upgrading my 2006 Mexican Strat, (Trem and bridge now being done) tuners were next on my list.Came across these Fender style locking tuners. No they are not Fender USA made originals. I have read stories of third party parts being slightly under or oversized which makes installation difficult or in some cases impossible. So was slightly apprehensive, but at the price thought I would give them a shot.These things fitted perfectly..... 10mm socket and boom, in no time DONE!String changes are slick and easy, they feel smooth in use, they stay where you set them and whats more they look GREAT!! Now my Strat feels, plays and looks soooo much better.Definitely recommend.

Excellent product 👍
