Knob on the tuning peg stripped out on my Kentucky KM-650. Where

[Otis_Spunkmeyer]

One of the knobs stripped out and I can't tune one of the strings. I took it off and it's definitely no good. Where can I get a replacement for it? Stewmac has them for 4$ each but shipping is 10$.

I know how you feel, but would you buy it if the cost was $9 and shipping was $5?

will any of these do?

Are they Gotoh tuners and is the stem square or does it have 2 flats?

Is the knob held on by a screw or moulded on? If the latter, you could glue it back. I did this with a Schaller knob and the epoxy is still holding more than 15 years later.

If I recall correctly those have Golden Gate tuners, with screw on knobs similar to Gotoh. 2 flats, 2 sides rounded. Stew Mac knobs won’t work without modification. They are for square shafts. Siminoff used to carry those knobs, I think. Don’t know if he still does. Those replacement knobs are notoriously hard to find.

I don’t understand how a knob like that can “strip out”. Unless I’m wrong or the tuners have been replaced with the glue on knob type like Schallers or Golden Age.

I e-mailed Kentucky and they are sending me out 4 for free. What a nice turn of events.
