[QUOTE="R_J_K75, post: 9226938, member: 6921294"] Graphtech makes a locking machine head and they are great. I think one turn of the tuning peg is either a whole or half step and they very rarely slip out of tune while the guitar isn't played and usually doesn't take more than a turn to get it back in tune. I have picked up a guitar that I haven't played in months, and it takes under a minute to get it back in tune. Not to mention it makes changing strings so much easier. Swapping them out on most guitars is a breeze, they fit most guitars. I had to put Schallers on my 12 string, and they don't usually fit Squier guitars because the bore hole in the headstock is too small, but I've found that Gotohs fit though. If I buy a new guitar, I automatically buy Ratio's for them at the same time, well worth the investment. Make sure you do your research too though because usually once you open the box they come in you cant return them. The only guitars Ive found they dont fit on are the old split peg machine heads typical on Telecasters and any guitar that has the Kluson style machine heads. Not going to lie, re-stringing and tuning a 12 string is still a PITA.
