Between Treem and Derrick, well you guys have about got me sold on the gold Grover Imperials. I intend to change the tuners on the DV72 one day as the key screws get loose from time to time, and I'm thinking the gold might look better. I like 'em.

Jim, they're on my D65s as well, and they're very nice looking tuners. I replaced my whole set back about a year and a half ago. Just for being technically correct, though.... those are Grover Super-Rotomatics with Art Deco knobs.
You'll find them here:

The Grover Imperial tuners are a different tuner, although they also have the Art Deco knobs. I have only seen them on archtops almost exclusively. You'll find them here:

Also, keep in mind that Grover stands behind their tuners and if you're having trouble with a specific tuner, contact them. They have a lifetime guarantee and they will replace or repair them. I found this out AFTER I had replaced all my tuners! However, I'm glad I did it because they're all NEW and SHINY and they really perk up the look of the guitar. The gold gets a little dull and muted over the years.
