To install the tuners:

 

1.Place the six tuners into the holes on the back of the headstock. The holes may need to be widened with a peghead reamer or a round file. DO NOT widen the holes too much—the tuners should fit snug.

2.Slide a washer over the tuner shaft and screw the barrel nut onto the tuner.

3.Align the tuners perpendicular to the edge of the headstock and parallel to each other. Use a strip of masking tape to secure their position on the headstock.

4.Using a 116" drill bit in a drill press, drill 38" deep holes into the headstock. Note—Drilling the holes deeper than 38" could result in drill- ing out through the front face of the head- stock. Use a depth stop or tape wrapped around the drill bit at the correct depth as an indicator.

5.Secure the machine heads to the guitar headstock with the tap screws.
