Headless bass hardware

[Pkomor]

Im looking for a headless bridge/tuner unit, but i cant seem to find any for sale at sensible prices.
Does anyone know of a cheap source, or does anyone have one second hand?

if i recall the guy whos company make them for Status died, and the headless tuners have been in short supply for a while (I dont think Status will sell them on their own now). ABM make the tuners but i can only see silver on their web site.

The bloke who owned ABM died, but they're still in business after a bit of a review period. Rob told me he redesigned the ABM unit and I understand he gets these Status tuners manufactered in the far east and shipped direct.
