New bushings certainly will help if the existing bushings were leftover from whatever was installed prior to the Waverly's (and not Waverly bushings).

I've changed out many sets of tuning machines (but never built exquisite guitars like Bruce), and often see where people don't use the correct bushings that came with the machines because the new rollers "seem to fit ok."
