Johnny Boy Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 New to this forum and it seems really great i love my new Riviera, but I'm thinking of changing to the pearl button Klausons. Does anyone know what size the peghead holes are? Seems to be either 9 or 10 mm. Also, any idea where I can get a set that will fit without any modification. Thanks for any help.

Alan189 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Hi Johnny, Welcome to the forums! I changed the tuners on my Riviera (mini-humbucker version) to Grover Deluxe. I had drill to make the hole bigger for the new tuners. Was my first time drilling. Turned out good and the new tuners are great! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitmore Willy Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Hello and Welcome! Johnny, I won't be of much help as I don't know what kind of tuners currently come on your guitar. If they are full size Grovers they are 10mm holes. So I just thought I would chime in with a little info and a couple of links: "The Kluson brand is a registered trademark, reg. # 1802680, owned solely by WD Music Products Inc. We are not an acquisition or an addition, nor are our tuners "obsolete" as witnessed by our re-issue of the spectacular Kluson Supers as shown below. Our tuners are authentic reproductions and are favorites of collectors worldwide." That quote comes from here: http://kluson.com/ Tuners can be purchased here: http://www.wdmusic.com/shop_by_category_tuning_machines_kluson_3_per_side.html If you need adapter bushings to adjust larger holes to smaller: http://www.wdmusic.com/tuning_machine_parts.html If you want to talk to them to get hole size, tuner or bushing info: http://www.wdmusic.com/contact_us.html 17570 N Tamiami Trl # 1 North Fort Myers, FL 33903 (239) 543-3625 wdmusic.com If you want to see how I went from smaller holes to larger (I did put up a few tips and tools)...here: http://forum.gibson.com/index.php?/topic/76854-beater-guitar-part-2/ Hope others are of more help, Willy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Boy Posted July 25, 2012 Author Share Posted July 25, 2012 Thanks for the ideas. It came with Kluson/wilkinson like tuners so I guess I'll just try to figure out the hole size and go from there. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
