Does anyone know the number for the machines MSA used the Classic SS guitars? Thanks, Jack Palmer.

More amps than guitars, and not many effects

Did you find the info?
There's no numbers, just "Grover Patent Pending". I can take detailed pics to send to you and on to Grover.
If you wanted it closed because I hadn't responded, get some patience. I get one day off a week out of the truck.

I have a 1977 D10 Classic and the tuners are the "Grover Rotomatics". You can buy them lots of places. Stew-Mac being one.

ISTR that the Rotomatic came in a few mounting configurations. If I'm wrong, that makes it simple.

I don't think so in the 70's. If I remember right you could get Rotomatics, or Imperials, in chrome or gold.
