Location: Phoenix AZ | You need slothead specific tuners. The location of the string hole is different and the end of the post fits into a metal sleeve on the inner edge. Dave |

By the way, the custom made 12 fret slothead cutaway 12 string is rolling near completion. Looks really nice. I just carried in my Adamas 1688 so that he could get neck diminsions and duplicate the feel and string spacing. |
