doc40hz Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Hi y'all, Looking to replace the machine heads on my Japanese 62 reissue Precision. I've had it since 1995 and one the machine heads has failed. What would people recommend that would drop right in? Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I would look at the Hipshot range I guess, unless you wanted to search Ebay (international) for original parts. I think the bass shop 'Bass Direct' could recommend the exact fit.

chrisanthony1211 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 The gotoh vintage reverse tuners are pretty good, I currently have them on my 64 precision and they just slotted straight in.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inthedoghouse Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I replaced mine too but I wanted to use Fender/Schaller vintage tuners which have a larger plate and require the holes in the head to be expanded. It worked out great through and I'm pleased I did it :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
