I recently bought a nice Breedlove C25/CRe acoustic that came with these gorgeous 3 to a side tuners with ebony tuning pegs. I would love to have something similar for my Tele build (6 in line right handed). If not ebony, some other dark wood, perhaps rosewood or similar. I could probably call Breedlove and ask them where they source their tuners, but suspect they are exclusive to Breedlove guitars and not available independently. And wanted to ask the experts here anyway :)
 
Precisely, exactly what I was looking for. Comments on the Stewmac product page indicate that the vintage style will work for factory Strat tuners, meaning the Gotoh SG38's I ordered from Warmoth with my Tele build should work as well. Bookmarked for after build upgrade. May order some now for my Strat :)

Thanks!
 
LMII has Gotoh tuner peg woodies:

If I'm reading that right, they're a shoo-in on the pricy, melted-looking Gotoh 510s, but to fit them to Gotoh 38's you have to buy longer screws (which they also sell). But in looking at the pix, I might try shortening the neck of those buttons a tiny bit myself, so they don't stick out like Gomer Pyle's ears.

Snakewood $81.55
Bloodwood, cocobolo $49.95
Ebony $9.95

Hmmm. That's a hard one?
