Hi,
The tuning pegs on my Ibanez SR505 are crap. I'm looking to upgrade them to something of better quality. Who makes the best replacements?

Thanks for the suggestions

I got this bass, and i love it but after about 3 months the electronics got screwed. i sendt it to be repaired, and i got it fixed in less than two days but the guy that repaired it said that i needed some sort of spray to use on the electronics now and then. just so you know.

He was taking about deoxit. It's a spray cleaner /lubricant for electronics. Ibanez come with goth style tuners I believe. The stock ones are pretty good as well. You might just be good cleaning them with some wd40 spray a little into the tuner to help lube them (where the string end goes in on the top)
