Yea i could have on mine, but i put in the Wilkinson bushings. How i mounted the tuners (this may be all wrong but it worked for me) is. With the bushings in place i put in the tuners for both E strings make sure thay are stright then i took a piece of masking tape and put it between the two. Giving me a nice stright line for the rest. As for the drill bit i didn't use one. Rember that is maple soft wood so i have a Small punch (think small ice pick) i marked the hole location, removed the tuners and carfuly punched a small hole where it needs to be. Then start your screws, remove them and reinstall tuners. Now this may be all wrong but it has worked for me in the past,and ya don't have the worry of drilling through the headstock. Hope this helps ya out.
