i was jammin with my friend in his basement (where my 4X10 is) and like the young moron i am, i leaned my beloved G-3 against the amp. So needless to say it fellover and (thankfully) only broke my E tuning machine
now my question for all you TBer's is which type of extender would work with my bass?
P.S. i have a 1979 G-3 so my tuners are the smaller dinkier kind, apparently gibson had a bunch of parts they needed to get rid of
you have performed a crime against humanity! you shall be punished! you are charged with leaving a Gibson bass leaning against your amp. you are hereby sentenced to buy a super good stand and leave your bass on it at all times unless you are playing it.
now, to answer your question, i know nothing about Hipshot stuff other than John Entwistle used a Hipshot. i would think that any Hipshot would work for you, but as i said, i know nothing about them.
Post a picture of your bass' headstock so that we can see the tuning machines. I'm sure someone on here will be able to figure out what kind of tuners your bass has, and I guess Hipshot may or may not have the right detuner to go on there.

Those look like Gotohs. Schallers look very similar, except that the little cover on the back is D shaped instead of circular.

my G-3 is the best bass ive ever played, too bad the previous owner decided to stop in the middle of sanding the paint off, leaving a big black spot on the back

im going through g-3 withdrawl now that i dont have a tuner all i have to play is my SX
