I agree with the above.
My three axes were quality built and played well at purchase but the stock tuners were obviously very cheap.
So, the first thing I did with all (3) was replace the tuners on my Martin copy (1975), Guild D40 (1973) and Ibanez Tele Silver Series (1977).

In those days it was Grovers/Schaler but I'm long out of the loop of what out there now.
I would not get new tuners on a cheap one....I'd upgrade my axe first. smile

Carry on....
