Instead of just playing it and being happy, I feel I may want to mod this thing. I will likely leave it stock but just gathering the info to price things out and determine if it will be worth it to my cluttered mind.
I’ve already been griping about the tort guard, and while I can’t yet check Guild’s parts site for a fast replacement in black, I can make my own with pickguard material. So now I’m entertaining the idea of taking the gold tuners off my JF30-12, and looking like the Grover mini rotomatics would be a drop in fit.
Does anyone know if they have them in a higher ratio without the locking feature? I’m not opposed to locking tuners per se, though curious because I see at Stew Mac the regular ones are 14:1 and their 18:1 are only the locking rotomatics:
Though I’ve gotta admit the idea of locking tuners on a 12 for faster string changes is intriguing
Thanks in advance for any input.
