    Description

    The locking version of the SG381 brings Gotoh's Magnum Lock-Trad system to the table – a simple but highly effective locking mechanism using a rear thumbscrew. Ideal for players who change strings often or use tremolo systems, it keeps tuning tight and stable under pressure.

    Installation Notes
    A direct upgrade for modern guitars with sealed tuners. The locking mechanism is simple and doesn't interfere with string winding. Retrofitting from vintage-style tuners will require adapter bushings and new screw holes.
