This is an older set of Hipshot HB1 tuners. Please note that while current Hipshot nomenclature for HB1
indicates "reversible":

This appears to an older set, which are in fact *NOT* reversible - note the absence of the removable button
head screw as found on current (reversible) models.....the ends of these tuner shafts are instead flush, with no screw and thus no way to reverse the shaft. From an old TB thread I dug up, Hipshot apparently used to sell
two "flavors" of the HB1; 4 inline such as these, (G&L, etc) or 3+1 (EBMM). In either case, please note that
these are short key/short shaft, intended as replacements for Schaller BM tuners. Also great for independent custom builds.
All that said, the tuners are in good used condition, showing normal wear but no rust or bent shafts. They
turn smoothly and are complete with bushings and screws.
$60 shipped and Paypal'd (G+S only) to the lower 48 if you can use 'em.
