Upgrade your 7-string instrument's tuning stability, string-change speed, and precise pitch accuracy with the Gotoh SG381-07 MGT Magnum Lock Traditional Tuning Keys. Supplied as a set of 7 left-hand (LH) tuners in a classic inline configuration, this set is engineered specifically for left-handed 7-string guitars as well as right-handed 7-string electric guitars with reverse headstocks.

Angkor Music Technical Evaluation: MGT Thumbwheel Locking & Regular 20mm Non-Staggered Posts

What makes the Gotoh MGT system exceptional is its intuitive rear thumbwheel locking mechanism. Simply thread the string through the post hole, turn the rear dial clockwise to lock the internal pin securely against the core wire, and tune up—eliminating string wraps around the post for superior tuning recovery after heavy bending or tremolo use. Featuring **non-staggered regular posts** (20mm height from housing base to string hole center), this set ensures uniform string height across all 7 positions, accommodating headstocks up to 15.5mm in thickness with standard 10mm (13/32") peghead holes.

E-E-A-T Performance Standards: Workshop Verification & Headstock Fitment

At Angkor Music, our guitar technicians measure and inspect all Gotoh tuning machine sets prior to dispatch. Gear & Backlash Inspection: We check each 16:1 gear mechanism for smooth rotation and zero backlash. Fitment Guidance: Standard 10mm headstock peg holes are required. Before installing, verify that your headstock thickness does not exceed 15.5mm to ensure full thread engagement on the screw-in threaded bushings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these Gotoh SG381-07 MGT tuners fit right-handed reverse headstock guitars?
Yes. Because reverse headstocks place the tuners on the opposite side of the peghead, a left-hand 7-in-line tuner set is the exact configuration required for a right-handed reverse 7-string headstock.

What hole size is required to install these tuners?
These tuners require standard 10mm (13/32") diameter headstock peg holes and accommodate headstock thicknesses up to 15.5mm.

How does the MGT Magnum Lock system operate?
Thread your string through the tuner post, tighten the thumbwheel on the back of the housing to lock the internal pin against the string, and tune to pitch. No excessive string wrapping is required.
