Jono Bolton Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I've recently noticed that the original machine heads on my Jazz are starting to go out of tune a bit easier than they used to and so I'd like to replace them. It's a Mexican Jazz Bass, and I'd ideally like a set of direct replacements, or ones with as little fannying about to fit as possible. Does anyone have any recommendations?

markytbass Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 How much are you looking to spend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jono Bolton Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 Don't know really. Obviously I'd like to get away with spending as little as possible but at the end of the day you get what you pay for. About £40, either new or second hand depending on what's available, would be sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budget bassist Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I'm sure fender pretty much sell complete spare basses aside form the bodies and necks, can you not buy official fender ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Protium Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Daft question but are you sure it's the machine heads? Have you tried tightening them, checked its not the strings, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
