lone_groover Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I’ve recently purchased a 1998 Korean Jazz and am looking to replace with similar, but higher quality, machineheads for this bass. I’ve looked at Gotoh, Schaller, Fender, Wilkinson etc online but they are usually chrome whereas I’m ideally looking for black. On eBay I’ve found black machineheads made by a company called Dix for around £50. I’ve never heard of this company so my questions are:- Anyone know where I can get black machineheads similar to Fender to fit this bass Anyone used Dix machineheads and can give me the benefit of their experience.

lemmywinks Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 You can get black Wilkinson machine heads from an eBay seller, i bought some for my fretless a while ago and they're very good quality: [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Wilkinson-black-bass-guitar-tuners-No-12-or-13_W0QQitemZ140325330591QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Guitar_Accessories?hash=item20ac0a9e9f"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Wilkinson-black-bass...=item20ac0a9e9f[/url] The base plate was slightly bigger than the tuners they replaced and i only just got them to fit on the Mighty Mite neck i put them on, once they were on they were a massive improvement though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
