OldStan Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share Posted September 15, 2021 Sorry ElChoad , I should correct my title to say Direct Fit No Drilliing. Sorry to waste your time, as the Grovers need drilling to install, (unless u am mistaken) and for me sadly that’s not an option anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not that familiar with the 575. My 150 had Grover 18:1s from the factory, so it was an effortless swap. What is stock on the 575? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goSteelers Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I know you already decided -- I just saw this post -- but having tried the GraphTech Ratio tuners, I would never go with anything else. Each tuner has a different ratio, specific to the string gauge, ranging from 39:1 to 12:1 -- makes tuning significantly easier and faster (and probably more accurate), getting to the right pitch (e.g. you won't "overshoot" when tuning the low E anymore, etc). And -- they come with these little, thin mounting plates that make them install-able on most any guitar, without drilling. You probably have to experience them to fully appreciate what I am saying. Expensive, but well worth it in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldStan Posted September 16, 2021 Author Share Posted September 16, 2021 yeah goSteelers , I thought of GraphTech, and they appear to be a fine choice, but the price would add up with my 4 Heritage guitars. I even tried going American made, with no luck. Your logic and points are highly appreciated, and if what I ordered last night fails, GraphTech will be in the running. Thanks for sharing the helpful knowledge, friend. Oh, and goBuccaneers! ?lol ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
