I'm old enough to remember when in the late sixties Grover Rotomatics were the tuners we all wanted.

I just switched the stock Roto's out on my 1990 Martin D16M for Gotoh 510's though. That 5 ounces makes all the difference in the world...

I love Grover’s, but I do prefer the more traditional look. What tuners did you use? Required new screw holes I assume?
