I have an old acoustic guitar and its fine but the tuning pegs and tuning system is so rusty and stuff that i cant turn them, how much would it cost to go to a repair shop and get 6 all new tuning things for the guitar?

Answer
It depends on what your repair guy has for replacement pegs and also how much you'll be charged to get the service done. Its a vague memory for me now but I think the one time I had tuning pegs swapped out on one of my old guitars (literally about 20 years ago!) I was charged $40-$50.
And that was from the neighborhood shop!

Something like Guitar Center might charge you top dollar & possibly use chintzy replacment parts, so shop around & ask.
