So, on the advice of several good folks (some here at the Cafe), I'm going to replace the tuners on the 1936 Kalamazoo A/flat mando I have.

I've looked at Stew-Mac and Elderly, and they have nice, inexpensive tuners, but the 'Zoo is very black, and I'd really like to have some with black buttons on 'em. There aren't black ones, nor black replacement buttons at the above vendors, and I don't know where to look...

Can y'all help me to find either good and simple tuners with black buttons, or black replacement buttons that will work with a standard (Grover?) replacement set?

Thanks!

Keep an eye out for a wacked out mando from the same time period, you might find some nice vintage tuners on a junker mandolin that will be correct for your Kalamazoo http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif
