Post subject: Schaller Locking Tuners...Help!!

Hi,
I recently bought a brand new American Deluxe Telecaster.

I noticed it did not come with the same Schaller tuning heads that my American Deluxe Strat comes with. This is probably because it does not have a whammy bar. At least thats what I am assuming.

I have some Schaller locking tuning heads laying around my house that I received as a gift. So I decided to install them in my Telecaster, good news they are a perfect fit "no drilling". But I did notice one strange thing, the string pole is a little bit shorter than the stock tuners.

Are these going to be a problem in my guitar. Is there a reason they don't put these on the American deluxe Telecasters. Will this cause any extra string buzz.

Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks again.

It shouldn't cause any string buzz. It will change the break angle on the 4 lower strings which will slightly change the response, but I don't remember exactly what difference it makes. I think it increases the neck coupling which should increase the sustain. It won't change anything on the E and B strings because of the tree.
