Anyone who buys the skull tuners should just stab themselves in the nuts, instead.

It'll be a less emasculating experience. Cheaper, too.

Seriously, if anyone buys those skull tuners, I'm going to punch them in the nuts.
You're little girl fists aren't big enough, mate ;)

hmm...  Im a little slow, please bear with me - I was wondering this too:

do locking tuners make a difference in keeping a guitar in tune at all?  or are they just for convenience in changing strings. I almost never change my strings, I dont strum hard. I just want my strings to stay in tune - I only use 8 gauge strings and tune to c# just like Iommi does, for my heavy rock music.  only tuners I have are on my relatively new gibson sg standard, and my 2006 Limited Edition Epiphone SG Standard G-400 with EMGs and chrome Grover tuners.

I was thinking about sperzels, but what would be the point?  prolly it is just adjusting the "nut" - neck setup and graphite.  Also, was thinking about getting chrome gibson tuners but that would be just for looks; would I need to drill new holes to install these in my black gibson sg standard?:

Most locking tuners simply lock the string in the post so you don't need to wrap it around the post. They will still rotate so that part doesn't lock them in tune like a locking nut on a Floyd Rose.

I'm with whomever said use the ones that look like mini bass tuners, bass tuners are easy, cut the string of an inch or two from the post, poke it down the middle, fold it over 90 degrees, tighten.

No danglies, though I kind of like danglies, but oh well ;D

Have you tried tightening the little screws on the top of each tuner?
