TommyK Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 They appear to be Schaller mini's or Schaller knock-offs. > > > Schallers at Stew-Mac < < < No idea if they are OEM or replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they better than the Groover that come with the G-400? Cause I will switch if they are when I willl have my G-400. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they work smoothly and stay in tune, Grover's won't add much to the sale price, so I'd suggest you keep them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I mean keeping the Schaller on my G-400. Does it worth it or they are almost the same value? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyK Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 I wouldn't change tuners unless the old ones were trashed. If you're looking to increase the value of your guitar by upgrading tuners, I'd say don't. I don't think you'd get your money invested in the tuners back... if you sold it.

I was just tinking to swap with the grover on my g-400, because if the Shcaller are better than Grover, I would have putted the Schaller on the G-400. And I dont want to add valur to my SQ-180, according to my mother its a gift and Im no right to sell it. -_-' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're having problems with the guitar staying in tune, it's probably not the tuners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're generic Asian die cast tuners. You can buy them at WD Music. These were commonly used on early Epiphones, but most modern Epiphone use Grovers. The fact that they look like a cross between Grover and Schaller should tell you they're neither. Here's a Schaller M-6 and a M-6 mini: Notice the squiggly S??? Made in Germany??? The small screw tabs??? That's what Schallers look like. So what's your problem with Grovers??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickNice Posted August 30, 2010 Author Share Posted August 30, 2010 So what's your problem with Grovers??? The knob!! Nah, I,m kiding. I was just wondering which was better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
