Yes you're right Rich, which is why I advised caution. My point though, was even the correct sized ones that I've fitted on Fenders, have needed that method to get them installed. If I had opened up the holes to make it an easy fit, then they wouldn't fit snugly, the way that they should. If the bass was on my bench, then I would know which method to go for but it's not, which is why I suggested alternatives.

I've not fitted tuners to a Musicman but have done a fair few Fenders. Most of those have been a very snug fit, snug enough not to be able to just push them home by hand. I've placed a thin piece of hardboard on the underside of the head, another on top of the bushing and then squeezed the bushing in, using an adjustable clamp. I would advice caution though and if you feel that they are too tight, then don't force it, instead you will need to open the holes up slightly. A reamer is the best tool, although you may be able to wrap sand paper around a suitable sized timber dowel.

Did something different at my gig last night

I've been thinking of doing the same but so far only done the thinking bit Love playing my fretless at home, I tend to pick it up more than my fretted basses, so perhaps now is the time. -
I can only imagine the level of depression if one of those broke during installation

That's a handsome looking guitar When not playing bass, I play mandolin and guitar, not out in public though

Another weekend, another bump.

Not uncommon, it's the second bass I've had from that era, without a date stamp.

Sorry Rich, no experience with either of those manufacturers but I've recently had a neck built by BC'er Grahame, GSPbasses and happy to report that it is very good
