Looking for some feedback from my personal army of Fender experts. I'm looking at a CIJ Mustang on the 'bay. It looks pretty clean except for this minor detail:

Thoughts? I don't know if the tuner shaft or cloverleaf paddle are bent, or how easy/pricy it would be to find an OEM tuner.

You people rock.
 
if the post doesn't have the two halves bent apart, or one broken off (conveniently impossible to tell in the picture) then yeah, you can re-install the cloverleaf with glue or even solder.

as for it being a fender, is there any other kind of bass? :D

^this^ all of it...:D

I'd find out about the post and if it's whole remove the thing, a torch and a little silver solder and it's GTG. If you are really anal about looks it could even be sent out and replated.
