Best Acoustic & Classical Guitar Tuning Keys of 2025

"I purchased these tuners for my Yamaha CG-150CA, and I was thrilled with how perfectly the screw holes matched. It took me only about 15 minutes to install them. I used the new screws provided, and the upgrade was a breeze. I measured using the template, but I was relieved that the holes lined up perfectly, which made the process much easier. I can't wait to string it up and try it out!"

"Changing the tuners on my Ovation Celebrity was a first for me, and I was surprised at how yellow my old tuners had become. The installation was simple; I just unscrewed the old ones and slid in the new tuners. I did notice a bit of machine oil on them, so I made sure to wipe it off. Overall, I was really pleased with how they turned out!"

"These tuners for my Yamaha NTX700 are fantastic! The quality is equal to the original, and they look even better. I was impressed with the machine sensitivity, allowing for precise tuning with heavy nylon strings. They arrived on time and the installation was just what I expected, with three out of four holes lining up perfectly."

“I needed to replace the old tuners on my 1952 Silvertone Acoustic, and these worked perfectly! I had to fill old mounting holes and touch up the finish, but after creating a small starter divot, the screws went in perfectly. They look great and work even better — an easy fix!”

“When I got these for my son’s guitar, I was thrilled. The previous machine heads were cheap and couldn't hold a tune. These replacements not only look fantastic but they also hold tune for days. It’s a total win!”

“I put these tuners on my 1968 Harmony Sovereign H1260, and they work great! They matched perfectly with the headstock and aligned with the screw holes. I’m very pleased with the result.”

"These tuners feel great and look amazing, especially considering the price. They do feel a bit stiff compared to others from this brand, but they hold tuning really well. They fit perfectly on my Epiphone Les Paul, and everything from the dimensions to the screws worked nicely. I haven't put strings on yet, but overall, I'm impressed with the quality."

"I purchased this to replace tuners on a sentimental classical guitar that had broken rollers. The tuners arrived the next day, and I was relieved to find that the big tuner holes lined up perfectly. While four of the screw holes matched well and four were slightly off, I managed to install them without much hassle. After oiling the gears and waxing the roller ends, they turned much more smoothly. At just $12.00, it was definitely worth it to get my old guitar playable again!"

"After buying a cheap Dean EVO XM, I found the tuners were in terrible shape. I was a bit anxious after seeing some negative reviews, but these tuners were a perfect match! Now, my budget guitar feels and plays like a brand-new instrument. I am pleasantly surprised and would give it 5 stars!"

"I purchased these because they matched the same measurements as my classical guitar, but I found that two of the screw holes are off by a centimeter. I managed to get the two middle screws in without any issues on both sides, but the outer screws are angled due to overlapping holes on the guitar head."

"To be honest, these are quite cheap and inexpensive. You really get what you pay for. While they do have a decent look and work well enough, they don't operate particularly smoothly. If I were to replace them, I'd likely consider spending a bit more for a higher quality set."

"I really appreciate the quality and price of this product. The item arrived on time and was exactly as displayed. Thank you!"

"I purchased this set for a 70's Lotus L-80 acoustic and the fit was perfect! After a bluegrass string change and a little work on the bridge, my guitar now has a robust, new twang."

"I was tasked with repairing an old guitar, and though I felt unqualified, these tuning pegs made it possible. The guitar is now playable, even if my repair skills aren't perfect!"

"I replaced a broken machine head on my 1960s classical guitar. It works perfectly and looks nice, closely resembling the original. The tuners turn smoothly and stay in tune. While some screw holes didn't align perfectly, I managed to use the ones that did and drilled new pilot holes where necessary."

"These tuners fit my vintage Yamaha FG-110 guitar like a glove. Installation was a breeze, and they have a better gear ratio than the originals while maintaining an authentic look. Great product for the price!"

"I had a few broken tuning pegs on my guitar that hadn’t been played for years. After replacing the original chrome set with these gold ones, the fit was perfect and they look even better!"

"I found these tuners to be affordable and they installed nicely. They hold the tune well and feel great under torque. I wish I could add grease to the gears, but overall, I'm happy with the quality and the finish for my setup. I'd definitely purchase them again."

"I replaced the original tuners on my Leo Jaymz SG with these Musiclily tuners. They fit perfectly without any need for drilling, turn smoothly, and are a fraction of the price compared to other brands. I've only just installed them, but I’m confident they will hold up well. I would not hesitate to buy these again."

"I appreciate the appearance, smoothness, and stability of these tuners. However, I encountered an issue with one barrel nut lacking threads. Fortunately, I was able to use my old tuner part instead of returning the whole set. I decided to keep the tuners, but I would suggest checking all parts before assembly for quality assurance."

"After 15 years, our Fender Acoustic needed new tuning pegs. I found these Vangoas, and they fit perfectly. They are identical to the originals, and I saved a lot of money compared to Fender's prices. I highly recommend them for anyone with a Fender Genesis Acoustic or similar."

"These tuning pegs were a great and inexpensive solution for my broken one on my Mitchell acoustic guitar. I replaced all of them quickly, and they worked perfectly. I even bought a new guitar afterward, but it had nothing to do with these pegs!"

"While these pegs looked great and the shipping was fast, I encountered issues with the screws breaking during installation. I had to replace them with ones I had on hand, which was a bit frustrating. I recommend opting for the solid thumb and tuning shaft style to avoid such problems."

“I needed a quick fix for my cheap outdoor guitar. The tuners were breaking, and I chose these mainly for their price and decent look. So far, they are performing well. The real test will be their durability over time.”

“When a peg broke on my classical guitar, I ordered these. They not only look better but also stay in tune longer than the originals. I consider these a great value.”

“These tuners fit perfectly on my guitar, overlapping the previous holes, making them a great fit at a great price!”

"I found the installation incredibly easy, taking me less than 30 minutes. The tuning stability is decent, but I noticed they were a bit stiff. Overall, the quality is great for the price I paid."

"I ordered these tuners after my third string tuner failed. They look just like the originals on my expensive guitar, and after replacing the broken one, my guitar is good-as-new. I’m glad I got these as backups!"

"At 75 years old, I was a bit hesitant to replace my old pegs, but I managed to do it in 30 minutes! They not only look beautiful, but they also hold the tune well. I’m really proud that I did it myself!"
