PRS SE Locking Tuners Opinions

[Charvel1975]

Hello, I have a stock 2021 PRS SE Custom 24 and was wondering if the SE locking tuners are worth it or not? I'm on a budget and I don't use the trem and on 1 of the songs on our set list, I tune the low E to D.

Better block the trem. Personally, I don't think you need them, if you don't use the trem. And even if you do, locking tuners will only help a little. Block the trem and use it like a hardtail.

Unless its for ease of restringing, I wouldn't bother. Those guitars have great tuning stability, (if you don't use the trem).

If you're on a budget, there's better tuners for cheaper. Look into Gotoh.

Locking tuners are always worth it in my mind. $100 for a set isn't a terrible price, but like others have said there is quality out there for less. You just need to do the research to make sure they'll fit.

If you're not using the trem, you might as well block it.
I have two PRS Custom 24's and i've blocked the trem on both of them.

I grab a few coins/nickels, tape em together and put them in the trem cavity on both sides of the trem block.
