Hi.

Gibson or Epi?

If Gibson, try a Gibson dealer.

If Epi, upgrade them. Don't know about EB-series, but Epi T-Bird has the machine heads made out of aluminium and eventually the splined portion of the post snaps off or loses the splines.

I bought some open style Gibson (Schaller) 4 screw ones for my T-Bird, but just as I suspected, they didn't fit. No big loss as they're going to find their way to some other project and they were cheap.

Remove and measure the broken one and search the on-line shops for a suitable replacement.

Regards
Sam
