Replacement Tuners for 89 Sheraton????

Recommended Posts

I Have an 89 sheraton, in Wine Red, and want to replace the factory pegs.......problem is the screw holes aren't in the usual 45 or 90 degree position, but straight across... similar to 70's schaller. Any ideas?

 

Dont want to have holes in the back of the headstock, and guessing refinishing would be expensive???

 

Beautiful guitar that i would like to upgrade without being too destructive.

 

Also, volume pots for both pickups only seem to work in the last 3rd, 7-10? guy i bought it from put a semor duncan in the neck, dodgy wiring or dirty pots??

Step One: Remove old tuners

Step Two: Install new tuners

Step Three: Put original screws back in the old holes

 

The holes will mysteriously disappear!!!

My guess, he used linear taper pots when he swapped pickups.
