What's your Grover Rotomatic tuner experiences?
I've had about the widest variation of experiences I could imagine!
- 1996 Taylor 422 - entire string shaft fell out, replaced with a new gold set that felt perfect.
- 2014 Alvarez ABT60 - replaced the unbranded original tuners with new 18:1 Grovers - felt about the same!
- last year I bought a used 2012 Epiphone EJ-200 - the factory (Indonesia) fitted gold Grovers feel absolutely superb!
- last year I also looked at a Epiphone EJ-300 (the rosewood version of the EJ-200 - Made in Korea) - the gold Grovers on that were about the worst I've ever felt! Shocking... I returned that guitar the next day.
Now it's also worth noting I've had Grover mini-Rotomatics on 3 different 12-string guitars.
- 1999 Taylor 355
- 2008 Guild F-412
- 2011 Maton Country Jumbo
... and they've all been excellent.
When they're good they're good.
When they're bad they're terrible.
