Inexpensive tuner upgrade for Epiphone SG

Post by marc61 »

It's a made in China Epiphone(ltd ed made for Music 123) but, we like it. Very light. Pretty cool tone. Anyway, one of the tuners broke, and I'd just as soon replace them

Any suggestions?

These would be a big improvement and would still retain the vintage vibe --

Saw those.

I can get Klusons on Ebay for $45.90.

Following a couple of other auctions. We shall see.

What's killing me is I only paid $99 for the guitar, and it keeps me from pulling the trigger on machines for $40.
