Smooth tuning. Stay in tune. This is a locking tuner so if you screw the thumb wheel out to the limit (but not beyond because you might damage the screw or break it off) you can lube both the worm gear and the main gear inside.I dip a tooth pick in the grease and put it on the gears inside the tuner. Looking inside it looks like brass gears. I lubed it with lubriplate, a Lithium based grease. I suspect all geared tuners use brass gears so lubing with Lithium grease is a very good idea. It also helps to give the tuner that silky smooth feel.I adjusted the tension with the philips head screws in the tuning knobs. Ultra-smooth tuning.I had to drill holes for the screws because the old tuners used a peg (Sperzel tuners) instead of a screw. No problem. I was very careful about drilling the correct size hole and using screw lube on the threads so I would not break or strip the heads any of the phillips head screws.Note on adjusting the screws that hold the knobs in place: Do not loosen these too much or the tuner will bind because it will allow the worm gear to pull outward slightly while the knob is rotated. You can see this happening if you look closely at the back of the tuner. For smooth operation the screw has to be pretty snug but not tight. You can judge this by rotating the knob and feeling the torque required. Using a string winder gives you the feel for it.The appearance of these gold tuners is right up there with my Grover and Schaller tuners on other guitars. Those tuners were over a hundred bucks.I love the Guyker 18:1 tuning ratio. It makes tuning more accurate and faster with the smaller knobs on 6 inline tuners. The Sperzals had only a 12:1 tuning ration which is to coarse for me, particularly with the smaller tuning knobs on a strat-style guitar (6 inline). I have found over the years that Guyker parts have just as good quality and life expectancy as the higher priced tuners. It's pretty surprising. Don't let the low price convince you that it's low quality. I don't know how they do it, but the quality is great. I found that to be true of all Guyker parts that I have purchased including Bridges, String Stops, and now tuners. So these days my first choice is Guyker and if they don't have what I need I look to the higher priced stuff. All the big name brands have much higher prices, but my experience is that the quality isn't any better than Guyker. Maybe i shouldn't say this because Guyker might raise their prices! I don't get paid for writing this review and am not afilliated with Guyker. I just appreciate high quality and affordable prices. I own about 22 guitars (kind of lost count) LoL. And I work on them all. I love working on guitars (and playing).

Excellent!! Very good material and fit in my "Tele". The adjustment is very good, the lock is very useful for adjusting the tuning and keeping it stable. Plus they look very good!!!

Bought these for an Epihpone guitar and am happy with the purchase. They are stable and keep the guitar in tune and that is what we need from tuners.Would I use these on a high end Les Paul or PRS? Probably not. But for Epiphone and other guitars in the sub-$1,200 range, these tuners are hard to beat.

Perfect drop in for a Squire Debut Stratocaster. And these tuners are appropriately priced to put on such a guitar. They work as expected and work fine. Just so you know, there are no instructions. You can losen the 10mm nuts by hand or with with a 10mm socket or wrench. Only hand tighten holding the socket by hand. Look up how to angle the peg head holes to position before tightening the knob. To move the locking pin, losen the knob and then tap on the top of the peghead so pin drops down. These work just like most locking pin tuners, including the ones I have seen on Reverend guitars.

After buying my first new guitar in years (an Ibanez S Series), the stock tuners were just not holding up and I was adjusting between every song. I was eyeing up some Hipshots (which would've been more than double the price of these), when the Guykers popped up on my feed. The high reviews/affordability sold me and I took my chance.Putting these on, it was life changing. They look amazing with a Satin Black finish, and installing took maybe 10 minutes tops. The string tension is ROCK SOLID, and makes for a snappier action which I personally love on all my guitars. Tuning stability is now something I barely think about. I tune it once when it comes out of my case, and I might have to adjust once during an hour long rehearsal IF I HAVE TO AT ALL.***It should be noted I tune into Drop A, with .13-.62 Baritone strings (with a wound third), so when I tell you these are up to the task, they handle damn near anything***I was so impressed with the Guykers that when my second lil guy (LTD TE-200DX tele) showed up, I knew no matter how good the stock tuners were, they'd have Guykers on it within the week, and I made good on that promise. It's turned a near-perfect mid range instrument into my favorite axe to reach for, from studio to gigging to rehearsing for hours. The days of spending $100 on one set of tuners are done, I'd pit these against any set of Hipshots, Schallers, or anything high-end.

I have 3 different sets of tuners from guyker and two screws broke on this set. (Probably my fault)The tuners do their job. They usually have a plastic film to protect the locking screw from scratches but none of them had it.

Me gustaron aunque para modelos GRX IBANEZ queda algo pequeño hay que calar al tamaño y no cualquiera puede hacerlo por favor acercarse a un laudero de confianza para que haga este trabajo porque quedarÃa milimétrica mente mal y eso podrÃa afectar la entonación y octavacion del producto final, aún asà es un excelente producto muy profesional y de excelente material, si pueden agreguen un poco de grasa de litio en el engranaje para evitar corrupción por el óxido y muchas gracias por el tiempo de entrega súper rápido 🙇â€â™‚ï¸ saludos.

Gut verarbeitet, alle Teile dabei. Eingebaut in eine Single Cut von Ibanez. War wesentlich einfacher als gedacht - Schrauben raus, neue rein und fertig. Sitzt wie angegossen und macht das Saiten wechseln sehr viel angenehmer. Ich kann dieses Produkt hier empfehlen.

Put these on a fairly decent guitar. All is well, but the locking mechanism is a bit weird (not sure how it's implemented internally, but the mechanical properties seem such that you need to shake an empty tuner so that the locking bit is released and you can feed the string in). Tuning stability seems fine though, so for the price, hard to ask for more. Will update the review pending long-term testing.

Avevo preso degli autobloccanti della Musiclily ma perdevo in continuo l'accordatura perchè le viti di serraggio non trattenevano bene le corde, specialmente se usavo il tremolo. Ho reso e poi deciso di provare questi Guyker, che costano solo qualche euro in più degli altri. Diaciamo che sono un po' più carini e meno grossi. Già a prima vista si nota la differenza in qualità ed in ogni caso sono ben assemblati e non presentano gioco o difetti. Montati senza nessun problema, vanno bene e fanno il loro dovere egregiamente. Per ora devo dire che sono molto precisi e permettono micro regolazioni tali da avere un buon tuning. Sono molto soddisfatto visto il prezzo.
