Re: early 80s 360/12 grover tuners?

My 1986 360/12 has Grovers. My 1986 360/6 with the same production month has the Schallers.

That headstock with the Grovers is so heavy. Anyone know if I could swap them cleanly with Schallers or Klusons (or the Ric vintage deluxe keywinds) and lighten the load?

I hope it's kosher to bump old threads around here.

I'm curious if anyone knows roughly at what point in time the DC of the hi-gains started to get more consistent in reading around 10-12kohms? Is it as simple as "if it has plastic bobbins it will have a very consistent DC resistance in both ...

Survived my first 12-string set-up

I just did my first set-up on my Ric 360/12 and thought I’d post about the experience and some of my lessons learned. A little backstory first. I picked up a 1986 Jetglo 360/12 last year. I have a 1986 Jetglo 360/6 and the 360/12 was born the same month, so I had to have it. They are fraternal twins ...
