Changing tuners on a '34 Gibson???
Is this a sin?
The attached pic is my late 1934 L-4, and there is a close up of the tuners.
I bought it from Archtop.com, who had filed the frets down to nothing so I've already "meddled" with it by having it refretted...beautifully I might add.
The original tuners are verrrry worn and seem to have a pretty much 1:1 gearing.
I'm thinking of the Stewmac "Golden Age Restoration Guitar Tuners 3+3" although they only seem to come with plastic buttons.
Any thoughts?
