Hi all, I need to find the correct size / Part Number for the direct replcement of Marcus Miller 5 JB. The tuners are Hipshot made which I believe it's ultralite clover type .
From hipshot website they have 2 model for the hipshot ultralite clover model; 1/2 inch and 3/8 inch . But I am not sure which is is the correct one for the Marcus Miller 5.
Your help is greatly appreciated...thanks guys.

Post pics, front and back of the headstock, please. How many do you need? I may have one in my spare parts bin.

You might want to order the Fender branded tuners. They are made by Hipshot but use the two pin mount instead of a single mounting screw.

You can see the differences here (I haven't ordered from these guys but they have an awfully nice website).
