Product Description
Grover Rotomatic 406C locking guitar tuning machine heads give you easy tuning and positive string locking. With a gear ratio of 18:1, these locking tuners serve up all the goodness of standard Rotomatics - plus Grover's internal cam post. Stick the string through the string hole, hand pull to tension, and begin tuning. As you start to tune, only the locking cam inside the string post turns. The string post itself starts turning once the string is locked. In under one revolution of the string post, you'll be in tune - and you'll stay that way! Upgrade your axe with Grover's Rotomatic 406C locking guitar tuning machines.

Instalation was a breeze... they were a perfect fit, and yes they work beautifully!
They're moderately priced and I couldn't imagine a better choice.
The 18.1 gear ratio makes tuning quick and smooth. These locking tuners are a wise option that takes the time and frustration out of changing your strings too. These Grovers are groovy!
These Grover locking tuners are exactly what the guitar needed. They are an exact fit, just remove the old ones and pop these in. Only takes a few minutes to get them swapped out. The locking mechanism is really unique though and I wasn't sure how they would work. Totally different than locking tuners on my other dozen guitars. Still not sure how this black magic works to lock the strings but it does indeed work. They work really well in fact. They are also probably the most precise tuners I've ever used. They beat out my locking tuners from Fender, PRS, Gotoh and Musicman. Soooo smooth and no play.

They beat out my locking tuners from Fender, PRS, Gotoh and Musicman. Soooo smooth and no play.
Installation was very easy, as you'd expect with a drop-in fit. It was just a matter of a nut and a screw to remove the old stock tuners, and reverse that to install these tuners. It took me only a few minutes while changing each string in the process.
Once in place, I was not used to these kind of locking mechanisms. Unlike the Ping/Fender locking tuners (and others), there's no wheel to engage the locking mechanism with these - you simply tune the string up to pitch and the locking mechanism engages. It seems like a leap of faith at first, but it works well once you get used to it.
The operation of the tuners is very smooth overall. I'm very happy with that and the high gear ratio, which makes it easy to obsessively tune with precision, as I often do between songs. They definitely add an element of tuning stability over the stock tuners, particularly when using the whammy bar, though having a well-cut, lubed nut will also affect this tremendously.
