Yamaha BB435 Replacement Tuning Pegs

[Folkesy]

Hi All,

I have a Yamaha BB435 and two of the tuning pegs are making a horrible rattling noise at certain frequencies. I have done some searches and it looks like it is a common fault with these lightweight tuners.

I have been looking at what I could use to replace them and have seen that people have used the Schaller BML machine heads (they look the same dimensions except the length of the peg is shorter).

I was wondering if anyone had used these tuners on any of the new BB series basses and even better if anyone had any photos to share.

Thanks! 😊

Thank you for the feedback. This has to be worth a try before replacing them. 👍👍

Deffo the superglue thing!. Seen this on a couple of Squier basses and it worked a treat
