Gotoh CBT-01 4L Carbon Bass Tuners

I have a long history with Gotoh, and I’m normally very satisfied with their products, except for the screws. They’re slightly larger than usual, so you need to be very careful when pre-drilling. The screw heads are also quite soft, so it’s very easy to strip the Phillips head, or even snap the screw if the pilot hole isn’t large enough.

Be very careful with them. I personally always use screws from other manufacturers just to be on the safe side.

Other than that, these carbon tuners are extremely lightweight and work perfectly.

I fitted these to a Squier 5-string bass with a bit of neck dive. These tuners are quite a bit lighter than the originals and fit the original ferrules although I had to drill new screw holes. As others have said, the screws they supply are poor quality and the baseplate does overhang the edge of the headstock a bit. As my headstock is black, it isn't too evident though.
