Retrofit your Japanese-made* Fender bass for drop-tuning with the BT10 Xtender key. Bushing fits 15mm (19/32”) headstock hole.

The 505FV series design allows you to upgrade your vintage Fender® tuners to a more modern style locking tuner without making ANY modifications to your guitar. The overlapping ear design allows you to utilize the existing screw holes and the use of push in bushings, rather than screw in, means no modifications have to be made to the post holes. These inline tuners feature the famous 18:1 ratio and thumb screw locking mechanism.
Retrofit your USA '67-'82 Fender P & J Bass for drop tuning! Also retrofits Geddy Lee, reissue '67-'82 Fender. Fits 11/16 in. headstock holes. Installation instructions and mounting hardware included.
Retrofit your pre-CBS Fender equipped with reverse winding Kluson tuning machines for drop tuning. Fits 11/16 in. headstock holes. Installation instructions and mounting hardware included.
The Kluson Contemporary Series 19:1 ratio locking tuning machine uses the more desireable rear knob locking system and is designed for usage on contemporary guitars. This design requires an individual mounting hole location offset at approximately 7 O'clock or 4 O'clock depending on left or right handed application (bass or treble side). Uses the common modern 25/64 in. (10mm) peghole with a hex head type screw-in bushing and single mounting screw. This is a 6 in line set of tuning machines for right handed instruments (non-reverse headstocks) with all mounting hardware included
Finding the right aftermarket tuners that match up with your guitar's mounting hole pattern can be a guessing game and if your new tuners don't match, you're stuck drilling new holes, filling the old holes and screwing in the new tuners. That's why Hipshot made the UMP™ (Universal Mount Plate). The UMP™ is a patent pending adapter plate that fits between your Hipshot tuners and the headstock of your guitar. Tabs on the face of the plate prevent the tuners from slipping against the headstock. At the same time, reach nuts inserted through the existing headstock holes into the tuners keep the whole assembly securely in place.
Upgrade your tuners and improve the tuning accuracy and stability of your guitar with Hipshot's Tuner Upgrade Kit. With the patented UMP™ (Universal Mount Plate) included free in this kit, tuners will retrofit without drilling or screwing. Grip-Lock pin and thumb wheel system clamps onto your string, no wraps needed
