Grover replacements for 2000 D55

[Russman]

Hello! I am looking for replacement tuners for my D55. It’s a 2000. Any links to get these exact ones or something similar that lines up perfectly. Any help is appreciated.

I've actually done just that. Let me see if I can find them. Like for like Grovers on a D55. I'll be right back.

Check your dimensions, but I THINK these are it. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I don’t have any booklet with the guitar so I am not sure what the dimensions are.

Russ, the 3rd picture from the left shows the dimensions of of the new tuners. Expand it to see the actual dimensions. Then check your existing tuners the best you can to verify these dimensions, but I'm about 95% sure these are the correct replacement tuners. When you install the new ones, don't overtighten the screws. You really don't want to get down on the screw, overtightening and strip the threads in the wood. But for instance, in looking at the drawing dimensions, take a ruler or something, measure from the flat top edge of the tuner down to the screw hole, and make sure it's just a tad over 1". Just compare the drawing dimensions to what you've got. Piece of cake.

Also Russ, if you'd like to be able to make finer tuning adjustments, get the 18:1 ratio tuners.

Yes sir, but read up. I added that if you'd like to be able to make finer tuning adjustments, get the 18:1 ratio tuners.

Hi, is this the correct ones? Thanks so much.

These should drop right in, and are the preferred 18:1 gear.
