    Today I'll take you through a step-by-step guide on the correct way to install guitar tuners or tuning machines on your old or new guitar. Like most guitar parts, the tuners that come on your guitar are often not much to shout about. A nice shiny set of machine heads can help your guitar’s tuning stability and offer a smoother tuning experience. However, the tuners are not entirely to blame for the guitar’s tuning stability especially if they are not installed correctly.

    I bought a brand brand new premium guitar and the washers were lose on all tuners to the point of rattling, great video to explain all the parts… I guess it’s not a big deal, I will try to tighten them myself but still disappointed of this inconvenience

    You can also get hipshot tuners with the mounting plate if you don’t want to make any pilot holes

      Yes, that’s always an option too.

    With tuning pegs, as it is with love, longer shafts are generally better.

    Thanks for this video, although it’s not a difficult job, things can go wrong with the wrong tools, that’s what happened to me.

    Hi! I hope you can answer my question here. My husband is learning to be a luthier and built me a classical guitar. His first. He put the tuners on backwards, which is really awkward for me, having always tuned the knobs the usual direction. Like, the little gear is on top of the knob instead of under it. Does my description make sense? In order for that to change, does he have to unscrew and move the tuning pegs to the other side of the neck? Or can I just restring it differently to make it work? Like from the bottom instead of the top or the pegs. Help?

    Does it matter if the tuners are not straight? For example if i want them to tilt in an angle (just for aesthetic reasons)? I cant think of any reason this would compromise the tuning stability, since the posts are always the same. But i would like your opinion on that.

    i see many people online always saying you need a ph#0 screwdriver for tuners.. but in my experience they are almost always ph#1 .

    Helpful tip... run the tips of your screws over a block of paraffin and get some wax in the threads before installing them. They'll go in MUCH more easily. :)

    • @addictedtogear

      Yes, I normally do that with the larger screws. Thanks for the reminder
