Ibanez Roadstar II Bass Tuners

[malikcamlica]

Hey everyone. I just bought this bass quite cheap but it needs some love. First of all one of the tuners is broken and it is impossible to find one of these second hand here in europe. Does anyone know what tuner would fit to this bass? Or if I glue this with a superglue would it be strong enough?

And couple of dot inlays are missing I think one of the old owners filled it with silicon or something. What kind of material is this and can I buy a couple and replace them you think?

Looks like the alloy's sheared? If so you'll never glue that.

I'd have thought a look on ebay would turn up some tuners very similar to those, you can certainly buy pearloid dot markers in various sizes there... nice old bass btw 👍

Nice bass. Are those Velve BII tuners? They're hard to come by and use a fairly big hole.  I'd start by measuring the hole and then look around.  If they're just under 18mm, you might have luck with Goto h FB30s - I think they're a bit fatter than the more usual ibby GB7(07)s.  

 

Might be talking a lot of bollocks though.
