Members Player99 Posted August 7, 2013 Members Share Posted August 7, 2013 I got my tuners in last week, and after a night of pluging the larger Grover tuner holes with dowel and then meticulously drilling them out to the smaller vintage sized holes, I installed the tuner set only to find that they were defective.I contacted Tronical and they were good about sending me a new set. Took about 10 days to get the new set.I installed them in about 10-20 minutes. It took me a bit of extra time to put the strings on and figure out the correct way to run the unit, but now it is on it works like a charm. Press the button, strum all the strings, strum once more, everything is in tune and the unit turns off.Excellent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far Sperzels are my fave a three year old could restring them they stay in tune and look swell especially the frosted silver tuning heads matching my silver burst strat with SRV neck n fralins.

Members Player99 Posted August 7, 2013 Author Members Share Posted August 7, 2013 Yes you can buy them from Tronical Tuners. They are $300 They make them to fit most guitars, electric and acoustics. They are locking. 12 preset tunings, 6 custom spots for your own tunings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent! my sg likes to neck dive, will this unit help to prevent that?they will help a lot with that. Built in laser jet packs keep the neck at the optimal height.The set with battery is slightly less weight than a set of grovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alien Posted August 11, 2013 Members Share Posted August 11, 2013 Its worth it, i bet they jacked up price cuz they know u will want to put them on each guitar if u like them. Stuff is usually sucky, buggy and 5x the real price when its first released imo. I got an early iPod things a POS but it cost $$$500.00 new!!!!!

Members Player99 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Members Share Posted August 11, 2013 I have say, my guitar has never been in such good tune. It is so quick, takes about 5-20 seconds, then it shuts off on its own. There is a calibration process I have not done yet so it may get more efficient.
