Grover's Rotomatics are built for 10mm holes, which is what this guitar has. Straight swap, no reaming.
The Epiphone ES-335 has a Gibson-style 3-per-side headstock drilled at 10mm. Grover's Rotomatic housing is built for a 10mm bore, so the posts seat in the existing holes.
Should swap straight into the existing tuner holes, no reaming needed. This tuner set is not handed, so the same part works on this left-handed guitar.
Standard 3+3 Gibson-style footprint, 10mm holes. Gibson and PRS-style 3-per-side tuner sets are not handedness-specific, so this fits the left-handed guitar without needing a separate SKU.
Matches this guitar's confirmed 10mm tuner holes directly, an easy swap within the same tuner family it already ships with.
This guitar already ships with Grover Rotomatic tuners at a confirmed 10mm hole size, so a same-family Grover swap is about as safe a fit claim as there is.
Direct swap for the stock Vintage Deluxe tuners, no reaming needed.

The tuner hole size matches, but this guitar's screw mounting pattern is angled differently from a standard mount. The screw holes may not line up even if the post itself fits.
Hipshot's own fitment guidance for the ESP LTD Eclipse states tuner mounting screw holes are angled 45 degrees from the tuner body, a nonstandard pattern that may not align with a standard two-screw mount even though the peghole diameter matches.

Hole size should be close, but tuners on this model have varied by year. Confirm your actual tuner post diameter before ordering.
Tuners on the Gibson ES-335 have varied by production year between Vintage Deluxe, Grover, and Kluson units on roughly 10mm posts, rather than one settled spec. Grover's Rotomatic housing needs a 10mm bore, so the general size is close, but bushing fit can differ depending on which year's tuners are actually fitted.

Hole size should be close, but Gretsch tuner mounting patterns vary by model and this one has not been confirmed. Worth checking screw hole spacing before ordering.
Gretsch tuner mounting conventions vary meaningfully by model, this has not been confirmed for the G6120T specifically, and forum reports are mixed across the Gretsch range.

Hagstrom does not publish the Ultra Swede's tuner hole size, so we cannot confirm this drops straight in. Measure your existing tuner posts before buying.
The Ultra Swede ships with Hagstrom's own non-locking 18:1 die cast tuners, and Hagstrom does not publish the tuner post hole size for this model, so fitment against Grover's standard 10mm hole cannot be confirmed either way.

A popular tuner upgrade, but Hagstrom does not publish the Viking's tuner hole size, so we cannot confirm this drops straight in. Measure your existing tuner posts before buying.
Grover's Rotomatic is the standard 10mm hole reference point across most modern guitars, but Hagstrom's current die cast tuner hole size on the Viking is not published anywhere, and older Hagstrom models are documented using odd, non-standard hole sizes, so 10mm compatibility cannot be assumed the way it can on a modern Gibson or Epiphone.
