MusiclilyPro 3+3 Semi-closed Guitar Tuners String Tuning Pegs Keys Machine Heads Set for for Acoustic or Electric Guitar, Black

My only issue, and this isn't really their fault, was not having the dimensions. I assume they are all the same (apparently nobody cares) but there isn't much available online for any manufacturer. I didn't put them on a guitar, so I had to guess the thickness of my board at 15mm. I did take measurements from my guitars, however I'm only writing this because there could be some discrepancies between guitars when it comes to the diameter of the hole, the diameter of the upper bit with the thing you have to hammer in (that is a technical term) which is supposed to be 8mm? 7mm? 5/16"?. The optimal height/offset of the eye, and the spacing of the holes for the screws for the back plate would have been nice to know, but whatever. I did like how the cover comes off, very convenient. They are a little crunchy, but that is fine for this price point. These machine screws seem to be accurately built, and weren't missing anything. They don't bind and they have remained stable while being relentlessly hammered by my printer for days now

I bought these to replace the horrible tuners on a cheap electric guitar. They are substantially better than the ones that were on it. They were also virtually a drop in replacement with the exception of the screw holes being slightly different than the originals (not the fault of the tuners) so it took a little fiddling to get them mounted. They are decently smooth to use and seem to hold tune well. The photo is of the old tuners.

I was a little disappointed in these tuners. They are definitely beefier than what came stock on my Epiphone SG Special VE and they were simple to install and the existing holes lined up but a couple of these were very stiff even after I loosened the peghead screws. I don't know what was making them bind and I started to return them but then the tinkerer in me said, "Maybe I can fix it!" . So I bought some powdered graphite and attempted to shoot it into the worm gear covers where the tuner pegs exited the protective cover. It was slightly messy but cleaner than trying to squirt lubricant into the covers. Fine graphite gets everywhere but I think it helped the tuners and I don't think it will hurt the finish. If you are going to try this I would cut the tip of the tube right at the very end so you open up no more than a pinhole. That way the graphite dust will come out more like a jet stream and you are more likely to get more in the tuner. My two cents.I buy Musiclily Pro products from time to time and I've always been happy. I think these tuners may have just been very dry because they aren't lubricated at all. I'm satisfied with the tuners now.

UPDATE 7/19/2020: after several months this one tuner I replaced has worked flawlessly! I changed the remaining 5 tuners and the strings yesterday. It stayed nearly in tune overnight which is amazing since new strings will stretch. I am 100% happy!I am amazed! I have a cheap Fender Starcaster that I bought used about 5 years ago and a tuning head broke it would get to a point and just spin. I couldn't get it tight enough to tune that string. I really like this guitar so I was bummed.Searching by product didnt find a match but after a couple pages on Amazon, there they were - and at a great price. I didn't hesitate.They match perfectly and if I can upload a pic, you'll see that it's an exact match! (See if you can spot it, I only changed the bad one.) I'll update in a month or so when I see how well it stays tuned.Thanks musiclily

Time to replace a couple loose tuning machines on my 1975 Takamine acoustic guitar. Thrilled to find these with perfect hole and peg match. Although I only needed to replace 2, thought about changing out all 6 because the style is a little different. However, only 3 of the 6 sit flat and seal properly. I tried to force the other 3 in without scratching or damaging, but in the end, I couldn't make 3 fit perfectly. I am not a guitar tech, luthier, or professional musician. Needing these machines to fit properly just seemed logical to me, an assumption on my part, and may not be necessary? Now we'll see if my guitar stays in tune.....

I used these tuners to replace a guitar’s original tuners. They are much better and they were about the most inexpensive that I could find.

I love these tuners. I replaced my stock tuners on my epiphone Les Paul special 2, which were horrible. These are great for the price. Plus I love the flat black color, it looks great on this cheap guitar that I’m upgrading. I would suggest these for any low or mid range guitar. I don’t know if I’d put these on a high end guitar, but if you did I think you’d be relatively pleased. They don’t have a lot of “play” in them like the stock ones and they seem to hold tune well as well.

Keep in mind these are budget friendly tuners. I opted for the pro version over the normal version since they’re only a few dollars apart in price.For the price they’re great!No, they’re not as good as $60-$80 tuners but that should be expected.They look like the tuners from the cheap Squier guitars but they preform much better.I would recommend a small bit of lubrication before installing.I bought these for a cheap project guitar and I’m happy with them.

Le ho sostituite ad una Ibanez dei '71, sono esteticamente identiche. fino adesso non mi hanno dato problemi.

Gute Mechaniken, Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis top. Sie laufen nicht alle gleichmäßig und es ist viel Plastik verarbeitet, aber durchaus solide. Für diesen Preis völlig in Ordnung.

I replaced the tuners on an Epiphone Special Model II guitar, which had loose and wobbly tuning pegs. The Musiclily tuners are obviously of much higher quality - heavier and with a much more secure feel to them, they turn very smoothly, and they fitted directly as replacements on my guitar with no adjustment whatever, the fixing screw holes lined up perfectly.You could probably get an even better set if you paid over £50, but really these are very good.
