Looking to replace my tuners, I never did so before.

What size tuner peg for replacement squier VM P bass? 11/16? 8/16? 45/32?

thanks in advance.

I have the same idea for mine. The factory tuners are pretty sharp and thin. An upgrade there would make a big difference in an already very nice instrument. Honestly, it's the only thing I've considered changing. The Duncan design pickup is fantastic!

"8/16" ?

Ya mean 1/2" ?

The bushing is 11/16", the post is 1/2".

ok, thanks Steve. I was just playing with fractions. 45/32!!!!

11/16 bushing, 1/2" post. Is this pretty standard for most fender/squiers and knock offs?

thanks

Yep. Standard.

The only thing you have to watch out for is the size of the plate. The "Vintage" tuners tend to be large. They can actually leave a corner sticking out on a Mighty Mite neck.
