These tuners have non-staggered posts, suitable for all 6-in line headstocks that tilt back. If your headstock tilts back, as on a Gibson Explorer, you need a 6 In-line non-staggered set.

- Hipshot's Grip-Lock Enclosed Guitar Tuning Machines grip your strings for positive, accurate tuning. The new sleek design and ultra smooth 16:1 gear ratio give you a great combination of tuning stability, accuracy and good looks. The locking feature eliminates the need for multiple string wraps, and trem users no longer need a locking nut that deadens string sustain and all those annoying Allen screws and wrenches (added weight). Tired of winding strings? This is the answer. The Hipshot Grip-Lok
Description
Non-Staggered post option gives each string the ideal break angle over the nut.

Insane quality for the price.
I was hoping these would fit my Strat without needing to use the mounting plate, but, unfortunately they we're not quite the right size for my headstock. So, I installed them with the plate. Since mounting these to my guitar required using the plate, there were exposed holes where the screws from the stock tuners mounted to the headstock... This started getting on my nerves, so I ordered a set of Gotoh Magnum-Trad locking tuners (with the actual threaded locking button, like the Hipshots) that were the correct size. The Gotoh tuners weren't nearly as smooth out of the box as the cheaper Hipshots. After a bit of dialing them in, including adjusting the tension of the screw AND lubing them with graphite, the Gotohs were decent, and I would have been happy with them if I hadn't already tried the Hipshots... But, in the end, I ended up putting the Hipshots back on my guitar with the mounting plate because they are just that good. The ratio isn't quite as good as some of the others out there, but the smoothness makes up for that. They work great and keep my guitar in tune, simple as that. If the mounting plate doesn't bother you aesthetically, I highly recommend these tuners. 50 bucks for a set of USA made tuners that are smooth as butter right out of the box is pretty hard to beat.

Genius and quality..and affordable!
Ok, so there are many good reviews on these, and there's a very good reason. They are very good quality replacement machines for that guitar that just won't stay in tune. I installed a set (with staggered posts) on this cheap-but-good Slammer strat copy after making all other repairs. Holy smokes, what a difference! Now this $160 knock-off plays & sounds nearly as good as my $$$$ G&L! The 18:1 gearing allows VERY fine tuning and after setting the intonation, it NEVER. GOES. OUT. OF. TUNE. The mounting plate system is freaking genius, with NO SCREWS NEEDED to attach the tuners! And those quick-change spinny lock thingys...I mean shut up! I took a chance on these for about $50, and boy am I glad I did! Great value, and the instructions are clear. Now...a warning. If your headstock is thicker than 1/2" at the end machine, DO NOT BUY THE STAGGERED POST VERSION! Mine was 9/16" and (because I didn't want to have to return and re-order) I had to make a 9/16" countersink 1/16" deep to let the washer sit flush, buried in the headstock's wood. This was VERY tricky to do, but it was the only way to reveal the post hole for the string, since the last two posts are the shortest....and it worked perfectly! I do believe they offer an non-staggered model of these Hipshot tuners, in different configs (inline 6, or 3L/3R), so fear not! If you have a guitar that has good bones, but hate playing it because it won't stay in tune, GET THESE!

Really nice with a very convenient mounting system
I just got these for a 15 year old MIM Fender Strat. I have had problems with it going out of tune really easily. I read the other reviews and liked what I saw so I gave them a try. One thing that is super nice about these is the mounting system. I did not have to do any drilling and the tabbed mounting plates make it so easy to get these installed and straight. They are staggered in three different heights. The locking mechanism works great. I recommend these tuners. One thing, and this may just be me, I find the tuning ratio to be really 'fast'. I have an Epiphone with Grover tuners and it is easy to get precise tuning with them. The HipShot seem like a tiny turn makes a bigger jump in the pitch. I believe these are 16:1. I can certainly live with it, I just need to get used to them. If you are looking for locking tuners, I would give these some consideration. They work great, the mounting system is awesome, and the price is fair. They feel good and solid.

Overall very nice tuners
The tuners are very nice overall and work well. The look good, turn nicely and were super easy to install. I had to knock a star off for a couple reasons. One, which appears to be a blessing in disguise, is that I ordered the staggered tuners but the tuners I got were all the same length. I didn't feel like returning and waiting on Amazon's nowadays uber slow prime shipping that we should get reimbursed on so I just went ahead and used them. As it turns out, the tuning keys were just a bit above the face of the headstock. If there had been any staggered smaller they would not have fit all the way through properly. This is on a Strat parts build. So I'm glad I decided to go ahead and use these as I don't think the staggered one's would have fit when it came to using the smaller tuners in the set. The second is, and this is probably a me issue, is I thought and was hoping the back place would cover the screw holes from the old tuners. Alas, it does not. Not a big deal because they are obviously on the back but I was hoping. Anywho, all and all well worth it. Just make sure if you are wanting staggered tuners that they will fit through the headstock. At least on Fender style headstocks.

These are the best!
There are a lot of locking tuners out there but I will only buy Hipshot from here on out. The Universal Mounting Plate (UMP) is a game changer. The UMP makes mounting these tuners take about 5 minutes, you don't need a drill and its impossible to get them out of line. I've installed other tuners and always manage to get one of them (or more) just slightly out of line with the others and they require marking, measuring, using a straight edge, drilling (really need a drill press), and/or putting new screw marks/holes into the wood. Its awful. The Hipshots were a breeze and the mounting plate is virtually invisible once installed. They look great. Oh yeah, and they work fantastically well too.

I really like them, the mounting plates make them hassle free ...
I put these on a 2000 Chinese made Squire Strat neck. I really like them, the mounting plates make them hassle free to install and very secure. The anchor screw placement is not at the same placement that the original Squire tuners fit (the ones with the little screw beside them anchoring each gear box) so, the little old holes in the head stock show just barely right next to the new mounting plates. No big deal to me at all. Fill them with a little wood putty if you must, and they would never be noticed. I used the Fender locking machines on my last build. The Fenders are a little more work. For these you don't have to make, or modify the two little holes for the nibs that the Fenders have on each tuner. ( BTW those stock Squire nibs are at a very slight different placement than the fender ones so you have to do some tedious careful drilling to mod those) These Hipshot ones eliminate that whole hassle. I love em. I love turning these junk Pawn Shop guitars into real players. These are a step up for sure.

Tuners with Quality and Ease
I was concerned about fitting these to my newer Squire Bullet Telecaster (2020) but they where perfect! Didn't have to ream or drill the stock holes. Installed in minutes with the supplied universal mounting plates. The plates seem simple but they are nicely made and have a tight tolerance allowing for aligning the tuners without drilling any new mounting holes. They take a little getting used to after never using locking tuners before and years of winding new strings on, you have to learn to trust the little locking mechanism. These make changing strings super fast so I will probably change my strings more often. (So that's gonna cost me more money!)

Easy to install, easy to use, a great upgrade.
Super easy to install - they fit right into my 2008 Indonesian Strat Affinity Squier headstock without drilling or other modifications. Easy to use, they hold the strings tight. A great upgrade to any guitar for ease of string change. They feel a bit sturdier than the stock tuning machines, but I can't swear how much better they may be regarding keeping tune. I upgraded to these, a Tusq nut, and String Saver saddles because with stock parts the guitar wouldn't stay in tune at all. With all three upgrades its stays in tune for a very long time now and is a lot more enjoyable to play.
