Fender/Schaller - Fender/Hipshot

[ShandyBass60]

Hi,

Both of these tuners are two pin fitting and are found on recent American series P and J basses. Could anyone tell me if the Fender/Hipshot - newer type use the same two pin mount as the Fender/Schaller - older type.

In other words can I put the older tuners on my newer bass? The Fender Schaller are larger, so provided they use the same pin fitting should cover up any marks left by the Fender/Hipshot.

Does anyone know for sure?

Thanks

Err... Got the answer. No they can't be changed over without making new holes.
