Lightest Music Man Replacement Tuners?

[Smallmouth_Bass]

What are the lightest tuners available for Music Man basses (pre-Special models)? I am talking replacements for the Schaller BM's.

I've looked at Gotoh Res-O-Lites, but do not see drop in replacements for that size/model. Bonus if you can find a set for older Stingray 5's.

There's the Hipshot HB1's, but I was honestly expecting them to be lighter.

GOTOH CBT-01 CARBON-O-LITE 4 In-Line Bass Tuners for Fender® - BLACK | Reverb

i have no clue whether they're a "drop in replacement" or not (that requirement obviously limits your choices), but they're probably the lightest tuning machine, ever.

good luck!

If only they came in nickel or chrome!

Did you ever find any without needing to drill new holes?

I bought some G&L branded tuners and they were good. It might be hard to get them now...
