Default tuning button upgrade

I'm considering upgrading the tuning buttons on my Cordoba GK Pro... The stock ebony ones have notches in them that seem to catch on everything. Most often they snag the fabric when wiping down the guitar after playing

I have no concerns about the tuning machines, so I have no plans to replace them.

how easy is it to find replacement buttons?

Not sure how easy it is to find them for your Cordoba, but I would try here first:
Stew-Mac
I can't readily identify any that would be a match on that page, but I would give them a call. They are a very helpful and knowledgeable bunch, and likely to know the best way for you to get the right buttons, or ones that fit, even if they don't carry them.
Worth a call.

thanks for the tip... I was able to determine that Cordoba uses Der Jung tuning machines and the knobs on my guitar are the E-6 variety

I have sent inquiries to Stewmac & Der Jung asking for help
