Gotoh tuners back plate?

[maxoges]

I have a tuner that's missing the back plate. Does anyone know if you can buy it as a spare part somewhere?

Other then trying the manufacturer directly? Probably not. I don’t remember seeing just those covers for sale anywhere. Of course, I’ve never been looking for them are supposed to be pressed on at the factory and, as a generalization, aren’t removed.

Cool, an open back Gotoh GB-7.

Pop them off the rest of your tuning keys.

Failing that or a replacement cover plate, just buy a new GB-7, they are fairly inexpensive.

...

...tell everyone they are Schaller Da Vinci tuners.

I don't want to throw away a working tuner. Before I do that I want to make sure I can't obtain a new back cover.

Let us know what you hear back from Gotoh.
