Hello. Can you not use the standard Fender locking tuners? Cheers.

If they have 2-pin locator posts in the same location and the shaft is the same diameter/length as the Tribute Series models,
I guess they would work. Anybody here tried them?

Graphtech Ratio locking tuners were a drop-in replacement on my 2021 Tribute Commanche.

Btw, ToneNinja tuners are only re-branded Jin-Ho tuners. They’re ok . . sorta.

The pins are in a different location for tuners designed to fit Fender guitars. The ones that I've used for Tributes are by Kiesel, and I've also use Sperzels with the EZ-mount system that has no mounting pins. Numerous people have confirmed that Graph techs also work, but they cost quite a bit more.
