I plan on building an 8 string guitar and so will need 8 tuning machines. The fellow I'm building it for likes the Gotoh 510 tuning machines. So far, I've only found them in sets of six. Does anyone know a source for individuals of these (standard size, 21:1 gear ratio) so I don't have to buy two sets of six?

Thanks,
Pat

I believe LMI will sell individual tuners if you call them.

I'd think Shane could get them for you.

Stewmac might too. I believe I've bought tuners from them and had them show up in a plastic bag. I can only assume they picked individual tuners and bagged them up.

Thanks for the replies and thanks for the offer to order them for me Lincoln. I called LMI and Stew-Mac with no luck. Shane, however, is ordering them for me.

Cheers,
Pat
