went to do a gig with this guitar fitted with these today... took a USA Jackson with Duncan's on it, and never even considered reaching for another guitar... the guitar i used with these and the Guyker locking tuners, a £129 Harley Benton Deluxe Series Tele (2x HB and a Gibson style bridge)
been playing since '79, changing pickups since the early 80s... have always been a Duncan and DiMarzio user... but these are as good as the last DiMarzio i bought easily... and i could have bought 2 pairs for less than the cost of one of either brand! 100% recommended!!!
I’ve bought two bass bridges from this company and this may be my favorite. Lots of mass and solidly built. The price is certainly right.
Beautiful, sturdy, easy to install and with a locking system that actually works. Amazing deal for the price !
Very hard material to work so have New files.
But exceptional quality and service.
Fast delivery.
I spend a lot of time (and money) taking inexpensive instruments and making them playable and actually usable in professional performances. While these aren’t the smoothest tuners I’ve found they are a good step up from the factory installed ones on entry level instruments
Image shows a shiny strip with Guyker along the bottom, when it actually has a row of screws holding the top on.
I was unsure about changing my bridge and was unsure if there would even be a difference.
… Turns out the difference is quite dramatic.
A lot more sustain, and the adjustment possibilities immediately made my bass feel a lot better.
I would give this a 5 because I am extremely happy with mine, but I will give it 4 stars because it actually does not go down to 17mm spacing. (It goes to 18mm.. maybe 17.5mm)
It barely worked on my bass without the strings sliding off or causing any discomfort.
But I am subtracting a star from my review in hopes of pushing Guyker to improve small errors like this, but the bridge is massive as heck, looks great, and works excellently!
Very happy with this purchase!
The gears were already greased well, the design is sleek and elegant.
They feel solid and fit perfectly where the previous tuners sat without any need for adjustments.
I’m just curious why some pictures I see have the Guyker logo engraved and some don’t..?
I’m happy about the all-black I received, just curious.
Great value for the money!
I bought these locking tuners dress up a cheap, but decent Les Paul. I upgraded all of the hardware to gold. I was very pleased with the function and look of these tuners. It looks so good I am doing it to another Les Paul!
Thanks Guyker! Great stuff!
These filtertron pickups look very cool and I wanted to pull the trigger on a set of their blue filtertrons but the housing runs big. My red Guyker filtertrons are 73mm long and 37mm wide. I am not going to get them into my pickup rings without a little surgery. A bit of a pain. Also, these humbuckers are 2 conductor so no splitting. Also disappointing. Hope they sound decent.
The color on these is quite lovely. Once installed, they are very smooth tuning with 1:18 ratio and the locking function makes it easy to re-string, no endless winding and slipping. Note that the integrated shank fits a 10mm hole, so verify your mounting; I had to drill out my tuner holes to allow them to fit, I should have put it on the drill press because the holes ended up a bit rough.
Put them on a jazzmaster, typically that is a split post style fitting but the set screw allows for these type of knobs to be used on just about anything. They look great and function perfectly. Very satisfied
I upgraded one of my Yamaha Revstars. Originally bought to do a bit of modifying, I added a rainbow bridge and tailpiece. The quality and finish of the components is excellent, everything fitted largely into existing holes and lined up perfectly, the intonation was just about perfect out of the box with only minor tweaks required. This was my first time with Guyker parts and will be my go-to supplier going forwards.
I think everything was pretty good.. the order was accurate and on time.. not sure if they have anything in standard thread..or maybe it's all metric.. at least the threaded inserts were included..
I purchased three purple/marble-ish knobs for the purpose of replacing the two larger plastic knobs that came on my Ibanez SR1305SB. One of the knobs I recieved had a tightening screw that immediately stripped out when i attempted to install it. Luckily I only needed two knobs, the other three smaller knobs I replaced with a slightly different style from Guyker.
I love all the products I have purchased from Guyker. I promote them to other players for the best prices and quality products. The stability on the bridge and tail piece set I just installed into a Les Paul is amazing.
They look so cool and actually function very very well, they have many points of preference for using volume and tone controls with single channel amps if you don't use pedals
These locking tuners are true masterpieces. Both visually and mechanically. The color theme is out of this world.
The bottom line: on the first attempt the string broke, although I did (allegedly; keep reading) follow the instructions. Why did I write "allegedly"? Because it was only after I sent them an email asking for a refund for this non usable product, have they bothered to send me a detailed video with the right way to use it.
But.....
1. Why don't you put this video on your website, or your YouTube channel (I swear I searched before I've installed.
2. In the video I realized something that was not mentioned anywhere else: in order to use this tuner you need two hands: one to turn the tuning nut, and the other one to hold the locking nut from turning together with the tuning nut (to avoid twisting and breaking the string...). Yes, you read it right. Every time you want to go to Drop-D tuning (for example), you'll need to grab a hex key that would hold the locking nut, and with your other hand turning the tuning nut.
Now I understand why this "tutorial" video is hidden from potential buyers - because no guitar player would ever but a tuning head that requires two hand and a hex key.
What a huge disappointment!
