Tuner machines Jazz Style for a Jazz

Hey guys. I imagine there's an impossible chance for this, but are there Jazz style tuners for a Fender Jazz Deluxe V MIM? I don't like the look of the modern tuners. I realize they are there so they can all fit on one side of the head, but just curious if anyone knows about a replacement that would fit.

By "Jazz-style tuners" are you referring to "clover-style tuners"?

For any replacement, the first step will be to know the diameter of the peg-holes. Once you're armed with that, the good people at Hipshot might have a solution or two. Contact them and find out what info they need to help you further. Perhaps they'll have something off the shelf that will suit your needs.

Even if you can find tuners fitting into the holes (3/8 inch - as I assume) the clover-leafs will likely collide. You should be glad to have those wonderful lightweight Y-style tuners 5-in-a-row. Everything else on a 7ender looks poopy ...
