Broken tuning button on ibanez artcore AGB200

Sign in to disble this ad
THe tuning button on my ibanez artcore broke off during a show last night, and I was wondering if anyone knows a website that will sell just the button, nothing else, thanks in advance.

Picture.

I haven't heard of one myself. Try going to the repair department of the nearest store that sells Ibanez. They might have one.

Tuning BUTTON? I don't see no tuning BUTTON

May be my old eyes or you're playing a trick on me.

It's not nice to tease old people!

Whatever it is, it's not called a button. Do you perhaps mean the grip or handle on the tuner - the part you grasp to turn it?

Regardless, why not check with Ibanez?

Hmmmmm.

Maybe the little cover on the back of the gear on a machine?

Somehow I cannot see through the metal that is on the front to see if that little 'button' is missing.

Where is Clark Kent when you need him? Huh?

Until he shows up, please post the back side of the head so we can be sure.

Today's vocabulary lesson is that the part of the tuner that your fingers grip to turn is called a button or a knob.

I have PM'd the OP with a solution, which is that I have a few of these Ibanez MOP knobs -- but I don't recommend using them. They are weak & defective and should be replaced with brass-colored Gotoh-type knobs.

The OP's photo is a "before" shot of the headstock with the tuners in perfect shape.

Now imagine that one of the keys/buttons is broken....
