Hi peeps,
I've put these new Kluson tuners on a 1965 duo sonic neck. Everything fitted great except for the bushings, which are a tad too small/loose. The holes in the neck were not enlarged. Could someone kindly point me to the slightly wider bushings I should buy?. Not sure about the measurements and I'm sure some of you may have this info right off your head. Thanks a lot!
Which Kluson conversion bushings for a vintage neck?

Re: Which Kluson conversion bushings for a vintage neck?
Not an expert on these, but it might be that the bushings that came with the Kluson RI set are 8 mm (metric) instead of 8.2-ish mm. So I "think" you will need imperial sized bushings. Not sure, but If i recall correctly, those offered by Gotoh (in their Kluson style set) should have the correct diameter for a Vintage Fender neck.
