Vintage Vinteras 60s Jazz neck bushes and tuners

[Phil_bassman]

Hello Guys

Need some help, I'm having right mare trying to find the right size bushes for my Vintera 60s Roasted Maple Jazz Neck which MIM

Has anyone else had this problem. I know the vintage sizes are a bit awkward but the Fenders vintage bushes from their website which I received today, and they don't fit as they are to big!. Fender emailed me and said they should fit the neck holes....well they dont!

At the moment ill take any type of bushes and even dont mind buying a whole set of tuning machines from other brands if it means I can get the right size bushes!

Below is the spec for Vinteras Necks.

Any help on this would be mostly appreciated.

P.S before it gets mentioned I have tried copper tape around my original bushes and they just work loose all the time. I want a snug right fit!

I've had this problem before.

I had to file the holes in the headstock to make them larger.
