Its made of p-bass parts. Ive just finished putting in some quarter pounders, and am looking to get it painted and add a badass bridge to it.

The tuners are just the cheap ones that came with the pack, they turn really badly and get stuck.

Im looking to spend around £40, and i cant really find much information. Ive seen some schallers for that price, anyone ever used these?

p.s tempted to get hipshot drop D bt tht wud blow my hole budget on one tuner.

Schallers are good, so are Gotoh, and even the Wilkensons that go for cheap on ebay work good. Those are the only ones I have experience with though................and it's only my opinion.......:)
