To install the tuners:
1. Place the six tuners into the holes on the
back of the headstock. The holes may need
to be widened with a peghead reamer or
a round file. DO NOT widen the holes too
much—the tuners should fit snug.
2. Slide a washer over the tuner shaft and
screw the barrel nut onto the tuner.
Installing the Tuners
3. Align the tuners perpendicular to the edge
of the headstock and parallel to each other.
Use a strip of masking tape to secure their
position on the headstock.
4. Using a
1
⁄16" drill bit in a drill press, drill
3
⁄8"
deep holes into the headstock. Note—
Drilling
the holes deeper than
3
⁄8" could result in drill-
ing out through the front face of the head
-
stock. Use a depth stop or tape wrapped
around the drill bit at the correct depth as an
indicator.
5. Secure the machine heads to the guitar
headstock with the tap screws
