Hello guys,
sorry, I searched and searched the entire forum but couldn't find the answer I am looking for.
I have a S-500 Tribute, made in Korea (2007 I suppose), and I would love to pimp it with some locking tuners.
The problem is, which one's should I get? I read so many things about how the Schaller one's are custom made for USA G&Ls (so "standard" schallers could be hard to fit?) , but I can't get a good info on a matching locking tuners for a Tribute S-500 - whatever brand, grover, gotoh, schaller whatever...
Can you help me with this one?
Thank you so much!

Re: Locking tuners for Tribute S-500
You could dismount one tuner from your Tribute and compare the measurements with the locking tuner from Schaller and Sperzel. Probably none will fit, but it's worth a try.
I got a set of Schallers directly from the company, when they currently produced a lot for G&L. I had a contact there, but this one has left the company.
Sperzels, right as they are used by G&L, are available at several online shops.
I guess, you'll have to drill holes for the different pin position. Luckily these holes will be invisible, while covered by the tuning machine.
