G&L Locking tuner question
Posted: Thu Apr 12, 2018 6:36 pm
I have a question regarding G&L Locking tuners. My 2007 USA Comanche had locking tuners when I bought it, and it was supposed to have been imported that way new. My two ASATs did not, but I ordered these https://g-l-online-store.myshopify.com/collections/hardware/products/g-l-6-in-line-locking-chrome-tuners-right-hand-only from the G&L store for both of them. As noted there "These are current equipment on G&L USA guitars when locking tuners are optioned" and they have G&L written on them. I've been assuming that they were the same as the ones that came on my Comanche, but I just noticed (or was just reminded) that the ones on the Comanche do not have G&L on them. They otherwise look the same, and I believe are actually made by Schaller. So the question is if these are in fact the same tuners, and did they just start putting the G&L label on them sometime since 2007, or are they something different? I remember reading a thread on here that said that the Schaller style locking tuners that came on G&Ls did NOT have G&L written on them, so maybe they just changed over time, but I can't find that post.
Thanks.
Thanks.
