CH161 Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 (edited) I am not asking £80. I am asking for £60 for the set. I can't change the mistake above! One set of shiny Schaller BMFL bass tuners. These have Schaller engraved on the back rather than Fender. Clover leaf as 70s Fender basses. I should add the screw holes (and screws) fit directly into Fender basses from 1968 - 1976 with no extra holes required.

CH161 Posted September 16, 2014 Author Posted September 16, 2014 Interesting question? Each tuner weighs in at 103g The whole bag of all the bits is 461g - that's in a light jiffy bag. Are you thinking about postal costs? Thanks...
Jono Bolton Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 No not the postage costs, I have set of tuners in this style from a Geddy Lee Jazz on my P Bass and they're heavy as hell, just wondering how much weight these would save me.
CH161 Posted September 16, 2014 Author Posted September 16, 2014 Oh I see! Interesting...maybe he likes a heavier headstock end? I've seen a lot of people add a weight to the headstock to increase sustain - I've never tried it myself. Fender even make a clip on weight now. I've never seen the problem myself. Cheers...
GregBass Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Could you give the dimensions between fixing holes please? I have a '73 Fender in need of tuners
CH161 Posted October 1, 2014 Author Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) Hi, I can measure them for you later, but they are exactly the same size as the Fender ones.They will definitely fit a 73 no problem at all. These came out of a 75. Schaller were making the Fender tuners for Fender in the 70s. These are just newer versions of those. Edited October 1, 2014 by CH161
CH161 Posted October 2, 2014 Author Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) Here we go... Top left screw hole to top right is 3.3 cm centre to centre top right to bottom right 3.6 cm btm right to btm left 2.5 cm btm left to top left 3.6 cm I think the real size is probably imperial but these are the cm versions. Cheers... Edited October 3, 2014 by CH161

CH161 Posted October 2, 2014 Author Posted October 2, 2014 Thank you Jono, my sizes with the tape measure were pretty good then it seems!
GregBass Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 The hole spacing is different to mine. Maybe they fitted different tuners to Mustangs
CH161 Posted October 3, 2014 Author Posted October 3, 2014 Ah yes, they are thinner on Mustangs. Not sure why but I assumed we were talking about a Precision or Jazz bass. My mistake! Schaller do make some for yours though. Have a look on the website. Cheers...
CH161 Posted October 25, 2014 Author Posted October 25, 2014 Nice set of tuners anyone? Still here...
CH161 Posted November 7, 2014 Author Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) Tuners still available. £60? Anybody for a nice clean set of Schallers? Edited November 7, 2014 by CH161
