olp mm2 tuners

Sign in to disble this ad
this is my 1st forum so i hope im ok. i just bought a mm2 for grins ($75) and need to replace the horrible tuning keys. (all 4 of them) for the life of me i cant seem to find decent (not too expensive) tuners that will fit this china boat. obviously one needs to be reversed for the treble side. does anyone have an answer for me? im getting dizzy looking thru the internet for days now

Allparts doesn't seem to carry the budget priced tuners anymore ... bummer.

What's wrong with tuners on your OLP? Sure the ones on mine aren't the highest quality but they certainly do the job reliably. Any inexpensive tuner will most likely be comparable in quality... that's why they're inexpensive.

Guitar Fetish. That's where I got mine, and they were very reasonably priced. They aren't as smooth as the Hipshots I usually use, but you get what you pay for.

+1 that seems to be the best price/value for tuners.
