Part of Gotoh’s own Relic Series, these 6 in line Kluson-style tuning machines have been aged at the Gotoh factory in Japan to create an old, worn-in appearance.

Most machine heads that are artificially ‘aged’ after manufacturer tend to be the result of certain chemical treatments and polishing processes. Unfortunately, such treatments can also have a detrimental effect on the durability and functionality of the internal parts. These Gotoh Relic Series parts are crafted to look aged and worn during Gotoh’s own initial production stage and therefore the key internal components are not affected by this process and retain their full usability and durability.

Please note that these do not have any name stamped on the back casing.
