Fg-331 tuning pegs

Hey Lawrence,
Recently, I’ve been doing quite a bit of what you’re doung, restoring guitars from the 6mm tuners era. On certain guitars, I thought their appearance would benefit greatly from the use of gold tuners, of which were mostly of the semi-sealed species, so I began hunting them down. It seemed as if most of the ones I came across were of the “newer” 10mm type, which, as you know requires a bit of work to make happen correctly. If you do a Google search for “guitar tuners”, you’ll get enough stuff back to take a half of a day to look through, and you can find PLENTY of the “old style” 6mm tuners in sealed, semi-sealed, open back, strip tuners, gold, silver, black, etc., preventing you from having to do any unnecessary mods that will detract from the originality of your vintage instrument. It’ll be a little time consuming going through them all and checking the specs and diagrams, but it’s one of those necessary evils. I KNOW they’re available because I have a bunch of them. Actually, I believe all the ones I’ve acquired came from Amazon, and were very reasonably priced, to even like dirt cheap, and seem to work just fine. Good luck with your endeavors, and if you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.
