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

Pick any one and they will be great.

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)
