Needs verificationOwner reports are mixed on this guitar. One owner says PRS confirmed these fit, another says one screw hole had to be drilled. The Kluson non-collared locking tuners are the safer no-drill choice here. Note these are chrome, while the stock hardware is nickel.

Why we say this
Changed from Not compatible on 2026-09-29. Previous note claimed the vintage-style layout ruled it out, but PRS forum reports conflict: one owner says PRS confirmed 106297 fits the SE 594, another says a new screw hole is needed. Not strong enough to assert either way.

SE Zach Myers 2024
Not a match for the SE Zach Myers. This model uses a vintage-style tuner layout rather than the standard SE one, so these genuine PRS SE tuners are not a straight swap here, despite the PRS name.
Why we say this
Two independent PRS parts sellers state this exact SKU (PRS 106297--C-003) does not fit the SE Zach Myers: Andertons (excludes McCartys, Zach Myers and Paul's Guitar) and John Mann's Guitar Vault (excludes Paul's Guitar, Zach Myers and Bernie Marsden). Forum reports describe the Zach Myers using a vintage-style tuner footprint distinct from the standard SE layout. Previous Likely drop-in verdict was matched by SE-family resemblance rather than the SKU's stated exclusions.
