D'Addario Auto-Trim Tuning Machines - Locking Tuners for Guitars - 3+3 Setup, Black

Really nice auto trim tuners, easy to fit, and they look great and if you're guitarist who hates changing strings because you're a lazy musician like me, then I recommend a set!

I have a set of these on a 7 string and a 8 string guitar they are simple to install and great for tuning stability and a great feature is the auto trim no wire cutters needed again!

Produit ok sauf les vis fournies...

Sin pega alguna, las vi una vez en un video y me quede con las ganas, las he comprado hace ya un tiempo y se las he puesto a una guitarra electroacustica, bloquean muy bien las cuerdas, lucen mucho (He comprado el acabado negro), no son nada dificiles de poner, pero, lo mejor es como cortan las cuerdas. Una vez bloqueadas las cuerdas, basta con empezar a afinar y llegado un momento hace el trimming/corte solo, lo que hace que sea mucho mas estetico pues no se ven sobrantes de cuerdas, mantienen muuuuy bien la afinacion una vez puestas. Las volveria a comprar sin dudarlo.

Used to replace tuners on my esp Ltd ec-500 they where exact fit plug and play tuners other than the tiny hole on the back but you don't need to sell that if you properly ratchet the top nut on. Anyway as far as the runners go they are awesome they lock easily and the automatic trimmer is wicked I wish I had the in all my guitars I'm doing a full build on the ec-500 so being able to swap strings quickly is a huge plus.

I love locking tuners. They're one of the best things you can do for your guitar. Especially if, like me, you have way too many of them and you're really lazy about restringing. With locking tuners, restringing a guitar takes - at most - 10 minutes. If you're trying to go slow. I have Sperzel locking tuners on all my other guitars, but figured I'd give these a try - the auto-trim seemed interesting. To be honest, I don't feel that it's a vital feature. I did see another reviewer say it didn't always work for him, and another reviewer wrote about holding the string a certain way. I didn't do anything special and it just worked. I can see how you might need to bend the string back a bit. But again, as I said, not a big deal. Now, I did have one string pop back out on me while tuning. AFTER being cut. With my other locking tuners, hand-tightening the nut is enough to keep the string in place. Maybe I wasn't paying attention, or maybe these guys just need to be tightened extra-hard. Once again, probably not an actual problem and I was able to get the string back in there and it hasn't popped back out yet, so... One thing about replacing your guitar's tuning pegs with locking tuners - and this is true for the six guitars I've done this on (which were a mix of acoustic, electric and a banjo) and no matter which brand I use. I've never, ever been able to use the original screw holes that the original tuning pegs used. This means you'll be drilling tiny holes in your guitar. I've also never had the good fortune of having the new tuners cover up the original holes, so I've been putting the original screws back in. Looks less silly than having holes in the headstock. Again, this is not specific to these guys, but I thought anyone considering this operation might want to know. UPDATE: I have now used several sets of strings with these tuners, and WITHOUT FAIL one of them eventually flies out while tuning, usually after the thing has cut the excess string off so it's REALLY HARD to get the thing back in there. This is even worse with coated strings. I find that I absolutely cannot manually tighten the nuts, I have to use pliers to give it an extra turn.

Son geniales, los coloque en una Gibson Les Paul Studio, aparte de que hacen el cambio de cuerdas súper práctico por su sistema de bloqueo y corte de cuerdas (que dan una estética mejorada al no tener vueltas de cuerda en el afinador) mantienen la afinación excelentemente apoyando a reducir el problema de la cuerda G. Recomendados al 100%
