Tuner Upgrades For Squier Guitar

Post by MannequinRaces »

I'm looking for recommendations for tuner upgrades for my Fender Squier (built in the early 90's Korean made). I want some tuners that I can drop in and don't want to mess around with making the holes larger or anything like that. Does such a thing exist?! I like the guitar itself (of course it could be better) but I feel that the current stock tuners are the weakest link. I get tired of tuning it before every take of a song. Thanks for any recommendations!

Thanks! I'll post this again in the DIY forum. I forgot that forum was there (hardly look at it). I'll also look at the Grovers, maybe the manufacture can give me some specs.
