Ive got a hot repair job coming in today. The guitar is a Taylor Big Baby and it needs at least one tuner replaced, I assume they sell them in sets? Im not sure how to get ahold of Taylor for parts or how fast they are about getting them shipped out.
This guitar needs to be done by the 25th.

Does anyone know what tuners are on this model? Or have any contact for Taylor parts?

Thanks in advance

it may depend a bit on the age of the beast. like many factory builders taylor is now getting their tuners made for them with their trade mark on them.

on the older ones i believe they were grovers.crazymanmichael38855.6406828704

Yeah these used to be Grovers - I think they still are on Taylors (dont pay that much attention to them anymore), but his new R Taylors have Gotoh 510s.
