Hi everyone,
I recently bought another Fender Jim Root Tele, with the intention of using it in drop A tuning.
The problem is that the tuners on it will only accept a maximum of a .054 gauge string, which is nowhere near thick enough; I need something more like a 60 or 62.
I have heard that it is possible to drill tuners. It is a locking tuner which makes things a bit tricky, so I was thinking of filing the hole out to make it a bit larger.
Does anyone have any experience in this area? Any advice will be gratefully received.
