petergales Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 The 'elephant ear' part on one of the tuners on my Classic Vibe Jazz has started rattling. I've tried to nip it up with pliers but with only limited success. Has anyone experienced this before? Is it a write off? If so where can I buy a single replacement that will match the other tuners? I've put a post in the "Items Wanted" section as it would seem that the only option from a supplier is to buy a set of four. Hope someone can help Kind regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikay Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I've had that before and just wicked a little thin superglue into the joint which fixed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fleabag Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I'd say that was your best bet too, as even on here, you'd be lucky to grab a single tuner to match yours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petergales Posted August 3, 2018 Author Share Posted August 3, 2018 Tried the super glue and it worked a treat, thanks. Thanks for all the advice. Basschat comes up trumps again! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
