Ashbory style (rubber strings) replacement machine heads.

[TheGreek]

Does anybody know where I can purchase a set of replacement tuners for an Ashbory style bass?

Any chance some of these would fit?

My Guild Ashbory had screws that had to be really tight to keep the tuning. Do not oil, if they are friction based.

Is it early (banjo tuners) or later (conventional tuners)? I bought some years ago, can't remember where it was from but I suspect it was Large Sound who no longer sell them. Someone on Talkbass recommends the Kala U-Bass tuners - search for "ashbory bass tuners" on TB, the tuners themselves can be found at https://kalabrand.com/collections/u-bass-parts
