Re: Replacement tuners for an Eastman MD404 ??
Grover 309 18:1 are the highest ratio (and fortunately not the highest price) tuners out there for mandolin.
They are almost a drop-in replacement.
Easiest install is like this:
- leave the old bushings.
- just use the screw holes that fit (one on each tuner will be left unscrewed).
It's only slightly harder than a string change if you do it like that (I have done this on all 3 of mine).
