Tacoma branded tuners
I bought a 12-string set of Tacoma-branded tuners that the vendor described as made-in-Japan Gotoh tuners. I'm curious if there's any way to confirm the source of the tuners by looking at them; they were shipped without documentation which seems reasonable for OEM hardware sold as surplus parts.
Thanks!

I'd find a web site with good photos of the Gotoh's and see how they compare. There are a lot of tuners out there with brand name cover plates on them, and they probably all came out of the same factory. The odds are pretty good they actually are Gotoh's.

Phavriluk, one of my best friends worked for Tacoma Guitars as one of their top management guys. While Tacoma experimented a great deal with different brands of onboard electronics, with tuning gears all they ever used were made by Gotoh.
So the information you received is correct: they're made by Gotoh. Hope this helps. Wade Hampton Miller
