You might have noticed that one tuner shaft did not match. When I got this guitar, it was missing the gear and screw for one tuner, the d string. I found a spare that worked in my collection, (from a fender villager I'm waiting to feel inspired to work on) but it did not match. I ordered a set on eBay, thinking that I would just use the gear and screw, but when it came in, it did not fit. The gear meshed perfectly, but did not fit the tuner shaft, and the shaft that came on the eBay set was oversized, too long and to thick. I cut it down, and then chucked it in the drill press ands took it down to the right diameter, as well as carving out the"waist"that the others have.
