I'm putting a set of Hipshot HB1 tuners onto my MusicMaster bass. The bushings that came with the tuners fit into the headstock holes nicely, I didn't have to force them in too hard. But when I slide the tuners through the installed bushings, there's a tiny bit of wiggle room between the shaft of the tuner and the bushing. Is this normal or should it be fitting more snugly? This is a parts bass, the tuners that were on it before had a similar fit but I wanted to double check.
There's normally a taste of wiggle room. Parts that have to fit together are made to a +/- tolerance so if the inside part is on the large side of tolerance and the outside part is on the small side of the tolerance, they still work. mech
