Loose tuner bushes


Recommended Posts

I wedged some really loose ones in by wrapping them in a strip of wood veneer (0.6mm thick) and driving them home with a mallet. Reversible and solid. Some of them were less loose, and so a full wrap was too much so I wrapped them about 3/4 round the circumference.

Nowadays though I always use tuners with screw fit bushings, so much more reliable and convenient.

I can just picture Leo Fender in the 1950's, taking a step back from a problem in the workshop, scratching his head, and then reaching for a roll of gaffa tape. :rolleyes:[/quote]

well just look at that bridge.. :)

any of the ideas will work...the object is to stop movement out of the neck and promote tuning
