Tuning Keys on Peavey Millennium BXP 4 String

[Lumdingo]

i want to switch the stock black pegs to gold, or better yet, mix parts from a gold set with the black stick set.

I tried buying what I thought were identical ones in EBay, but the shafts are a different height and the core axle stem that you thread the tuning key handle on us thinner on the originals.

So, how can I get my hands in a set of gold plated ones that match the stock set?

All I was able to do was swap out the washers, but I'd love to swap the Y-keys too.

There are so many tuners anymore that look alike but vary in details like you've found. The easiest thing to do would be to order a black and a gold set of the same model from the same manufacturer.

But the manufacture is Peavey. They don't sell parts. Only complete instruments.

Gotoh, Schaller, Wilkinson, Hipshot or Chinese tuners from ebay. Not Peavey, they don't make tuners. Get a black set and a gold set of the same model from one of the tuner manufacturers. That way you know the parts will interchange.

Even the USA Millenniums and Cirri came equipped with asian Gotoh copies. You didn't get Hipshots until you stepped up to the Millennium Plus, and even those were unbranded. The actual Gotoh shafts and ferrules are not interchangeable with their Asian copies as the threading is opposite, male from female. And for the record, as the general consensus on TB might suggest that Hipshots are superior to Gotohs, I prefer the feel of the Gotohs over the Hipshots. Smoother, to me.
