Anyone ever use 'em? They look sweet and I have a set on the way. Just wondering if there are any tips on installing them. Thanks in advance for the help!

I put a set on the 000 I built for the Parson Redheads. Installed easily, looked FINE, have been standing up to the rigors of the road real well.

I love em. One of my favorites sets. Getting ready to put them on my next (a sinker redwood top, EIR B/S, zebrawood binding, end wedge, and rosette).

I was having buyer's remorse after I placed my order. Thanks for alleviating my fears!

I have a set of Waverly's on one of my Martins and these Grovers on the others. I prefer the Grovers.

Tony: It's good to make sure the hole underneath your bushing counterbore in the headplate is .250.I think the shafts are .249 and this gives extra support to the shaft. Hope I didn't make this confusing.
