This is what you need.I have a 2020 LP standard goldtop. I hate the 10mm hex nut/washer look. It takes up too much of the headstock face for my liking. Plus, it doesn’t look vintage correct at all. I wanted to install Klusons but didn’t know how to dowel the holes. Forget that. These dropped right in. They’re snug like they should be but didn’t require more than a stiff push of the thumb to seat. I can’t believe I didn’t get these sooner. Thanks stewmac for making life easy for us.

I have a 2021 Gibson Slash LP in November burst, I wanted machine tuners that provided faster string changes and maintained the authentic 50's headstock look. I replaced the Gibson tuning heads to locking tuners from Gotoh. The provided bushings from Gotoh were just a tad too loose with the existing holes and most fell out of the holes due to being to loose. These provided a nice snug replacement bushing and were properly sized for the existing tuning machine holes without any reaming and required only a slight amount of pressure to press them into the existing holes and work perfectly with the .25" posts on the Gotoh machine heads. Stew Mac Shipping rates are too high for 6 small bushings.

These were perfect for my MIM fender guitar. A bit more expensive than the others but worth it. Wasted my time with a couple of the other brands for the price and quick shipping and they ended up being all too small. Wish I had went for these in the beginning!

Diameter of the knurled shafts are a bit too small. I needed to add small slivers of tape in order to add some friction, so they would fit snug within the peg holes.

These bushings worked great! Great quality and fit perfectly into my Fender Player Series Stratocaster

I purchased a 1966 Gibson J50 in rough shape. The previous owner replaced the factory tuners and drilled out the holes to accommodate the larger Grover tuners. As you can see from the photos, I was able to purchase StewMac vintage-style tuners that match the original guitar look, but they were too small because the holes were enlarged. These 3/8 conversion bushings saved the day and worked perfectly to fill in the larger holes while providing a perfect fit for the smaller tuning post. The tuners and bushings from StewMac are of excellent quality, and I am so excited to have my Gibson back to the factory look.

I bought these bushings to fit Fender Vintage tuners in a mexican made Fender Strat (2013). The bushings that come with the tuners are for smaller holes, so you have to get these if you plan on changing to vintage tuners in any MIM Fender guitar. Worked perfectly.

These worked perfectly for replacing locking Sperzels on my ‘52 Reissue Tele and reinstalling vintage style tuners. Tip: Sperzels are just wrong, sonically, for a vintage tone. They had sucked all the airy, twangy Fender tone. Best thing about ordering from StewMac Amazon is I got free shipping vs the exhorbatant flat fee that StewMac charges. Sorry SM, your shipping charges are a fleecing.
