I guess the JH.R1 is the standard LTD tuner... it's on a H-1007 Deluxe with a FR.
Generic tuner you see on many guitars, 4 parts pieced like these :

So I need a good locking tuner. The ratio doesn't matter cause I'm just gonna use them to speed up the string changes. Cut/lock in trem, pull/lock cut at the peg. I know it sounds weird, but I already install my string backwards by putting the ball-loop at the peg lol (you guys do that too ?).

Had experience with the Trimlok before (Sperzel) and while they were great, I had to enlarge the holes in the headstock and drill for their little stopper pin. Would prefer a direct fit this time.

Thanks boys
 
I had sperzel tuners on a guitar I sold a couple of years ago. Dont understand why the holes were/are still too small on their tuners. This days when so many play with different tunings and string gauges. I had to struggle just to get in the 52 string. Anyway Gotoh are pretty cheap too.
 
Well... I forgot about this post and just Googled for the same thing and this was the first result lol. Where to buy online in Canada ?
