The GOTOH MG-T uses an intuitive rear-mounted thumbwheel locking mechanism for fast string changes.

Available in 3 string posts heights for creating a staggered string post arrangement that will give better tuning stability and increased pressure at the nut for better tone. Most guitars with the standard 3 x 3 configurations will use the standard 20mm long posts. Guitars with inline tuning configuration will 3 - 20mm long and 3 - 18.5mm short posts.  Please double check your headstock thickness since some guitars with thicker headstocks, like ESP/LTD guitars with inline tuning machines, will require 3 - 21.5mm Ex Long and 3 - 20mm long posts. The 18.5mm posts can be installed on a headstock with a maximum thickness of 15.1mm (9/16").

**The maximum string diameter that the MG-T can accept is 1.8mm or (.070"). This should be considered if you are installing them on an 8-string guitar with heavy bottom strings.

Locking tuning machines should use a shorter post than non-locking tuning machines. The string posts are about 1/16" (2-3mm) shorter so you will have the proper downward pressure at the nut for increased tuning stability.
