Hipshot-Licensed Ultralites?

Sign in to disble this ad
Is there somewhere I can buy hipshot-licensed ultralites like the ones on Lakland Skylines & some Cort basses?

I really like the idea of ultralites, but don't want to shell out $90 for a set.

Thanks!

I have the "Licensed" Ultralites on my Fender, which was made by Cort. The bushings aren't the same size as the equivalent US-made HipShots. The Korean bushings are slightly smaller in diameter. You could have bought mine, but the replacements I bought wouldn't fit without drilling the headstock, so I sent them back.

Keep an eye on the for sale forums, if you have the patience.
