    For your Epiphone Flying V 70s

    Epiphone ES-335

    Epiphone

    ES-335 2021

    Likely drop-in

    The locking version of Grover's Rotomatic, built for the same 10mm holes this guitar has. Swaps in without reaming.

    Why we say this

    The Epiphone ES-335 has a Gibson-style 3-per-side headstock drilled at 10mm, and Grover's Roto-Grip locking housing uses the same 10mm bore as their non-locking Rotomatics, so the posts seat in the existing holes.

    Epiphone Flying V 70s

    Epiphone

    Flying V 70s

    Likely drop-in

    A locking upgrade built on the same Rotomatic body and 10mm post as the Grover tuners this guitar already has, three a side to match the headstock. Should swap straight in.

    Why we say this

    This guitar ships with Grover Rotomatic tuners in 10mm holes on a 3+3 headstock. The Grover 502C Roto-Grip is Grover's locking version of the same Rotomatic design, sold as a 3+3 set for 10mm holes, so the body size, post diameter and layout match the stock tuners.

    Epiphone Jimi Hendrix Flying V Left-Handed

    Epiphone

    Jimi Hendrix Flying V Left-Handed

    Likely drop-in

    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.

    Why we say this

    Standard 3+3 footprint. Not handedness-specific.

    Epiphone Les Paul Custom

    Epiphone

    Les Paul Custom 2020

    Likely drop-in

    The locking version of the Rotomatics already on this guitar, using the same 10mm holes. A direct like-for-like swap.

    Why we say this

    The Epiphone Les Paul Custom ships with Grover Rotomatic tuners on a 3-per-side headstock drilled at 10mm, and Grover's Roto-Grip locking housing uses the same 10mm bore as their non-locking Rotomatics, so this is a like-for-like replacement of the stock part.

    Epiphone Les Paul Standard 60s

    Epiphone

    Les Paul Standard 60s 2020

    Needs verification

    Hole size should be right either way, but this model has shipped from the factory with more than one brand of tuner. Check which ones you actually have before ordering.

    Why we say this

    Some units of this model have shipped with Wilkinson tuners rather than the Grover Rotomatics Epiphone list in the spec. Both sit in a 10mm hole, so the headstock does not need reaming either way, but the bushing that comes out is not always the same part, which affects how cleanly the replacement seats.
