Hauser style tuners fit Lyra? 

So I was thinking of changing the navarro's stock schallers lyras to a hauser. Just ordered really nice Rubners but then when I tried to measure the screw holes, they dont match!!!

This is what I just got:
https://www.lasonanta.eu/en/guitarras-flamencas-clavijeros-golpeadores-unas-zapatos-para-flamenco/guitar-tuning-machines/rubner-150-330-black-rollers.html

The Navarro looks like it has the SLG1 (Cheapest one)

What to do what to do? Do i need to buy a Lyra style tuners again? Or the hauser style rubners are built differently? I am hesitant to fill the holes and redrill since I have no knowledge of woodworking.

well I replaced my lyra on my ex-rafael romero to a hauser almost the same rubner model
not a big deal. I just filled the old holes with toothpick, because they were a bit close to the new ones. Then drilled the whole thing into place. no problem for me, worked fine.



By the way I dont think they're built differently...The standard measure between center of rollers is 35mm as far as I know, but may Anders or somebody can help You

Those tuners are exactly what I have but I have white rollers. Nice no?

Arghh im just so scared to start filling and drilling. Do you have any more info on your toothpick method?

It easy I've done it on a few guitars. Even if you get similar lyre tuners the holes may not match, there is a standard spacing for rollers but not for screw holes- they're usually different.

Check link below for more info
