    Replacement Bushings/Spacers for Bass Tuners?

    I have several basses that are 20 to 25 years old. Several spacers (or bushings) between the 2 pieces of the handle are broken or missing completely. Does anyone have a source of small nylon spacers or bushings? I can't be the first person to deal with this!

    When replacing strings on my Fender jazz bass I cut the E string a tad short and it only wraps 1.5 times around the tuning peg. Seems like most conventional wisdom is to have it wrap 2-3 times. I know that this could make the string trickier to keep in tune, but does anybody know if wrapping...
