Hola... alguien puede ayudarme con estas clavijas? No consigo identificarlas... son vintage y muy probablemente de una serie deluxe...

Hi... I need your help with these machine heads... I can't recognize them... They are vintage and maybe of a deluxe serie...

¿Son de stratocaster?

Si es asi, parecen ser una reproducción de los afinadores Kulson que usaba Fender entre 1952 a 1967, solo que estas tienen las clavijas en forma ovalada, no hexagonal, es algo dificil de ver por el tamaño de las fotos.

Aquí puedes ver a lo que me refiero.

Te transcribo parte de un articulo en ingles que me encontre por la red sobre este tema:

Tuners
1950-late 1951: Fender used "single line" Kluson tuners, that had "Kluson Deluxe" stamped in a single vertical row (like 1956 and later Klusons); these are easily identified as "early" Klusons (and not 1956 and later Klusons) because "PAT APPLD" is also stamped below the vertical "Deluxe" marking. These are also different because they lack the side worm shaft hole for the tuner shaft (there is only a side "entrance" hole).

1952 to 1953: Fender used "no line" Kluson tuners exclusively, and were unmarked (had no brand name stamped in the tuner back). The "PAT APPLD" is no longer there. Also still no side worm shaft hole for the tuner shaft.
1953 to mid-1956: There is now a side tuner shaft worm gear hole. Still "no line" style casing (had no brand name stamped in the tuner back).
Mid-1956 to 1958: "Kluson Deluxe" is now stamped in the outside tuner casing in a single vertical line. The bottom side of the tuner is still stamped "PAT APPLD" (only seen if tuner is removed from peghead). Fender used Kluson tuners exclusively on all models. The only variable was the tuner tip. DuoSonics, MusicMasters, Mustangs and other low-end models had white plastic tips, all other models had metal tips.

1958 to 1964: "Kluson Deluxe" still stamped in the outside tuner casing in a single vertical line. But the bottom side of the tuner is stamped "PAT NUMBER" (as Kluson was granted a patent, and the patent "D" number is only seen if the tuner is removed from the peghead).

1964 to 1967: Fender used Kluson tuners, but now the "Kluson Deluxe" was stamped into two vertical lines ("Kluson" in one line, "Deluxe" in the other). Note some models (such as the Jazzmaster and Jaquar) the use of Kluson tuners ended in mid 1966 (see below).

Fall 1965 to late 1970's: Fender had tuners made for them with a big "F" stamped in the back cover. Tuner buttons were chrome plated plastic. Note models such as the Jazzmaster and Jaquar (1966) and the Musicmaster family (fall 1965) got these tuners before Strats and Teles (late 1967/1968).


espero te sirva de algo

From the first image (front), they look like staggered tuners, not vintage. Very shiny cases - also not vintage. Vintage doesn't matter unless you're trying to sell them as such. If they move easily and don't slip, that's all that really matters - holding tune.
