Which locking tuners for Fender?

[dcburn mk.ii]

Just picked up a 2011 American Standard Fender Strat and looking for locking tuners with the vintage look. Ordered a set of Gotoh, but the bushing is too small for the factory hole. Honestly didn’t think about it, never had the problem outfitting Gibsons.
Looking for nickel with the bean style tuner, do you guys know which one will have a larger bushing to fit the factory drilling?

Why not just grab the Fender Brand locking tuners?
They must make Fender Vintage Style locking tuners.
I have Fender locking tuners on both of my Strats, they came from the factory with them on my American Ultra II HSS and Player II Modified HSS.

I'll second the above ..... I have them on a strat ... and I had them on a Tele I had .... totally solid tuners

Honestly never looked at them.
I use the Kluson Revolution tuners on my Gibson’s.
Then didn’t want to spend that much and saw the Gotohs.
Yeah probably a solid plan to check what Fender has to offer.

Can't hurt.
I've used Hipshot Locking Tuners in the past for ease of install, but they don't look as good.

The Gotoh are fine. You just need conversion bushings.

Why not go with the good old fashioned split shaft? Sticking the string in the hole really was the best design, and locking turners really only solve a problem we created by getting away from split shaft tuners.

The GOTOH stuff is the best bang for the buck but get whichever fits and uses your current holes.
