HD, love the locking tuners. Where did you end up ordering them from?

Scott at DOMO International took care of getting the tuners for me - they were special ordered from Gotoh, and his prices and service are great.

I'd love to get one of the TRC's, unfortunately Justin has closed up shop at Euphony. Anyone have any more details, maybe he has stock he's still selling somewhere else?

Justin mentioned that this was probably his last one ever. Hopefully someone will step forward and make them again.

This is interesting as I had tried to run down some locking high X tuners with RS' help, but I ended up at a dead end. Will the 510Za fit the WS3000 12 string you think? I don't want to drill any holes.

I got the impression from talking to RainSong that all of their guitars made the last bunch of years used the 301. Can you post a pic of the back of your headstock?

I know it's three years later, but I just picked up a WS3000 and can relate direct experience. Mine (January 2013 production) came with Gotoh SG360s so I ordered two sets of SG360-MGs to be a direct replacement with no modification or drilling. Scott at DOMO came through for me again, one of the sets is "normal" and the other is with the smaller post holes for all six strings to better accommodate the octave strings. They should be here in a few weeks so I'm holding off on a string change.

Thanks! I hit a dead end a few times, so gave up. Please let me know how it turns out after string change? Then I'll do the same. Around how much are the new machines please and were did you get them exactly. I have lost all the research I did initially.

Many thanks!

Paul

Paul, the twelve tuners were little more than $100 shipped. Can you post a pic of the back of your headstock so I can see if they are the same as mine?
