Many of Fenders Pure Vintage hardware and bridges are crafted where possible on the same tooling and machinery as our original-era Fender parts. Some of this original tooling has been diligently rebuilt to achieve the crisp clean construction of original vintage Fender products, though many Pure Vintage parts still retrofit several of our modern instruments and amplifiers. Whether you are personalizing, modifying or restoring, there is no better way to maintain the proud heritage and period-correct accuracy of your classic Fender instrument or amp.

    Tuners were very solid and turned well but unfortunately were way too big for my headstock. Couldn't get all four inline as the back was too large. Nicely made and they would've been a great addition to the bass I am building. Got a GC return and will find a smaller version.

    One of the tuners on my Squier Precision fretless bass had a tendency to loosen and rattle. I decided to pull the trigger and replace all four tuners with classic full-size tuning machines - literally the day before a gig. The tuners installed perfectly, and the bass is good as new.

  • I recommend it.

    I ordered these tuners to install as an upgrade on a Squier VM PJ bass. They looked beautiful and install was going well until I got to the one mismatched bushing that stopped me in my tracks. The OD was much larger, and it was plainly unlike the other three on visual inspection. I had to pack it all up and return it to GC. The guys at the Syracuse store were very accommodating and helpful in making the return and ordering a new set for me. Hopefully the next try will work out. GC staff gets an A for customer service. Fender gets two stars for crummy quality control.

  • I really like these tuning keys! Thx

    will this be a working replacement for a Squire J Bass by Fender?
