I have a 1972 P/P,I have two questions.
1. I have a couple of tuning keys that are getting real slopply,where can I get some that match ? ( I can take a picture of them if I need to)
2.Did Emmons ever make white fret boards like some of the old Sho-Buds had on them ? |

| Wade, we have the same guitar ( i also have a '72 p/p) and i have the same issue. real sloppy tuners. does yours have the dual line klusons? similar to those on a tele? i'm trying to hunt some down too so if i find 'em i'll let you know. i'd bet that Mike Cass or Bobby Bowman would have some. |

Dave,I was going to hollar atcha at Pearls the other night, but you was talking with some other folks and I did'nt want to butt in,I was going to see how the steel playing was coming,I bet you'll be smoking before you know it,especially with those cats you down there you pick with.  |

If they are the large butterfly head Klusons, I have several.....They are out of production and hard to find...

I have redone a couple of guitars, with the tuners from Stew Mac, they are Gotoh repops of Klusons, I even think there better,they have a different ratio, that gives you a finer tuning.
Like, Wade and, Dave I had sloppy ones on each neck, but I changed out all of them.
I swear it also helped out the sustain.
