Product Details

The Gotoh Compact Bass Guitar Tuners are specifically designed for smaller pegheads, featuring enclosed-gear mechanisms that enhance tuning stability. The tuners have 7/16″-diameter string posts and require 9/16″-diameter pegholes for installation. With a precision 20:1 gear ratio, these tuners ensure accurate tuning and are constructed with cast housings and metal knobs for durability. The set includes four tuners for 2-left and 2-right peghead arrangements, as well as all necessary mounting hardware, including four screws, bushings, and washers. For optimal installation, pilot holes are advised, and using a No. 50 bit is recommended to prevent damage to hard maple. Additionally, lubricating screw threads with cutting lubricant, wax, or soap can help reduce friction and aid in installation.
