  1. Neck dive on Gibson SG guitars doesn' t exist.

    Neck dive on Epiphone SG copies is a real problem.

    Anyway an SG need light weight tuners, KLUSON Revolution for a modern SG and Schaller G Series Double Ring for a vintage style SG.

    A set of Schaller G Series Double Ring on my Ebony SG '61 Reissue ,

    Right from this website - go to the bottom of  home page and click on "Gibson Hardware" - they sell three different combo of reflector knobs.  If not the color you want try StewMac or All Parts.  Shouldn't be hard to find.

     

    Knobs in the hardware section are standard ones.

    Nice mods. Been considering removing my Robo tuners myself. When I do, I'll go for the Klusons. Good recommendation, thanks.

     

    KLUSON Revolution tuners are awesome, they are light weight (perfect for the Gibson SG), nice vintage design, 1:19 high ratio, smooth tuning keys and very stable.

    A locking version is available too but not necessary imho.

  4. Yes the TUSQ XL adjustable nut is fine and the cream finish is great, better than brass or titanium. 

    The KLUSON Revolution tuners are fantastic, they are light weight (perfect on the Gibson SG), nice vintage design, 1:19 high ratio, smooth tuning keys and ultra stable.

  5. I made cool upgrades on my 2015 SG Standard, very good guitar , I love the neck profile :

    - KLUSON Revolution machine heads  (GForce removed)

    - Historic TRC

    - TUSQXL GraphTech adjustable nut

    - Les Paul engraved tenon cover

    - 5 ply 60° bevel pickguard

    - M-69 humbucker rings

    - Gibson ABR-1 bridge, black adapters

    - Vintage repro knobs smooth top

    - Heavy knurled Switchcraft nut, Historic switch tip
