    Needs verification

    Owners of this exact guitar have asked about this swap without a clear answer on whether the holes need to be enlarged first. Worth measuring your tuner posts before ordering.

    Why we say this

    This exact guitar (2020 Epiphone Flying V, stock Epiphone Vintage Deluxe tuners) has an active owner discussion asking whether swapping to this compact Grover line requires reaming, with no clear consensus reached. Epiphone Vintage Deluxe-branded tuners on other models use press-in bushings smaller than the modern 10mm standard, but that has not been independently measured on this specific Flying V.

    Needs verification

    Built with exactly this kind of tight headstock in mind, and the post size likely matches. Not independently confirmed on a real unit yet, worth checking before buying.

    Why we say this

    This mod is specifically built for tighter headstocks like Explorer, per its own product description, and 10mm post diameter likely matches. Not independently measured against a real Explorer unit, so this stays at Needs verification rather than Likely drop-in despite the strong fit on paper.
