I thank anybody who would care to respond for their time and their patience. I just bought an old Gibson A-style mandolin and its developed some problems. (I was told it was a 1941 A-1 but don't know if that's true or not).
Several of the tuning machines are so stiff that I could not physically turn them without the added leverage of a string winder. Of course I broke one of the buttons soon after. I would like to replace the tuners. I would also like to do it myself, but I am really bad at things like that. I'm including a picture of the tuners in the hope that I can find a set that will just fit the existing holes in the headstock as they are. No drilling etc.
I have looked around on line and have not been able to find anything that looks exactly the same, or close enough to risk it. If anybody could point me in the right direction I would very much appreciate it. Thank you!
