I'm the owner of TB500 #245 and need a replacement tuner. You can see photos in the photo gallery section. Does anybody know if these tuners are still available or does anybody has one to sell.
I searched the web for a long time but couldn't really tell what the right tuners are.
Thanks,
Steffen

Hello stahl
The original tuners were Gotoh tuners, but I was having a hell of a time finding the right one (with mounting bolt plate directly center vs. offset). Maybe someone here might be able to point us in the right direction for exact replacement tuner.
But, there are Govers that will work. These will fit on your TB500:
Grover 14:1 ratio, nickel, 3L/3R

Hope this helps!

I just looked around a bit and found larger pictures:

The tuners are not identical. The bottom side is open and you can see the spindle on the new ones.
Also the plate that I'm missing has a little offset on the original ones.
I want the guitar as original as can be.
Maybe someones has some originals left.
Or maybe I'm just trying to replace the plate.
Thanks a lot,
Steffen

Me again!
I just like to ask the members of the TB community if someone has replaced his TB500 tuners and has maybe one original left that he/she likes to sell to me.
I have seen the same issue with the tuners on other 500s - so maybe one is left over.
Thanks in advance,
Steffen
