Our Vintage-style Guitar Tuner Bushings are press-fit bushings for 1/4"-diameter string posts.
Made of high quality machined brass.
Straight-sided bushings: these are easier to install, and stay put better than tapered bushings. Straight-sided hex bushings are now standard on Waverly tuners.
Some guitars may require peghole modification. See our specs, below. For a perfect fit, we recommend a .393" diameter reamer to cut a clean, accurate counterbore.
Tip: If you are looking to retrofit tuners with 1/4"-diameter string posts into guitars equipped with larger enclosed Grover, Gotoh and Schaller machines, see our 3/8" Conversion Tuner Bushings (sold separately).

- Height: 0.340" (8.64mm)
- Outside diameter: 0.340" (8.64mm)
- Round collar diameter: 0.438" (11.13mm)
Sold as a set of 6 nickel bushings.
