    Where to buy?

    I'm looking for those plastic pearloid tuners found on the JPs. I've seen some Silos here with the tuners changed, but it's just the flap itself. Can these be bought separately? Where from?

    Lionel, I would try a place like Guitar parts, bass parts, guitar amplifier parts, ALLPARTS or Stewart-MacDonald: Everything for building and repairing stringed instruments!

    You may have to email them to find out if they carry them.

    Thanks Phil, I'll give those a try. I was hoping for someone who's done this to tell me how they got it though. Might save me the trouble... heh...

    *edit

    Oh crap. I found exactly what I'm looking for on the stewart macdonald site.

    Problem is, there are 2 sizes. Anyone know whether the EBMM ones are small? or large? I'm thinking small ya?

    I'm still deciding on ebony or pearl for the 20ths... but I think I'll go pearl for the maple, and ebony for the RW...

    I stock the pearloid locking tuner sets now, lots of people have modded their OLPs with them. I swapped the chrome keys on my AL with pearloid ones to match the pickguard.

    I will look up the EB part numbers while I'm at the store today.
    Have you got G.A.S. for another EBMM???
    then VISIT www.DUBALDOMUSIC.com! <--- My Store
    Do you want to TRADE your used EBMM in for a NEW one? -- Email me for details!
