Jin-Ho Gotoh/Wilkinson style tuners - marked R2, R3, R4? Install order?

Cleaned up some nasty tuners, on closer examination 3 are stamped R2, 1 is stamped R3, 2 are stamped R4.

Didn't notice on removal, I guess because 2 or 3 in a row had same stamp (probably R2, but not sure), and were kinda filthy and hard to see


What's the install order, anyone know? Jackson 6-inline, points downwards. Thx.


PS floyd locking nut, so does it even matter much?

I would think they should go from longest closest to the nut to shortest, at least on a non-tilt headstock, on a tilt back headstock, not sure. But yes, since it has a floyd, as long as the string breaks across the nut, it shouldn't make much difference.

Jackson = pretty hard tilt back
