Thanks James. Grover tuners are easy to find, but i need more specs for this model mounted on my sho bud (ref number if possible, ratio 18:1 or 14:1, Mid size or fullsize, is a 10 pieces set available ...)

Check out that website, they have all the info you may need. You will not find sets of 10. More likely two sets of 6, then you have 2 spares. Definately get the 18:1's you'll love them!!

What you need are Grover 210C's. The 210's are designed for pedal steels and come 10 to a set and also have the shorter post to prevent interference on strings 5&6. The 'C' designates that they are Chrome finish.

Here is one source but you can search the net and find them cheaper.

Thanks Michael
As you can see there's a screw on the right that does not exist on the 210 model...The housing has a mounting pin at the back wich is not compatible with my headstock.

Shobud used several styles of Grover tuners in Super Pro's (as they did in earlier models), including Spersels and Shallers. There is no "one size fits all" deal. You will have to match yours up with what Stew-Mac has available. No one can help you much, unless you mail us one of your tuners. But you can order easy enough, just measure your old one and match up with what Stew Mac has. You'll get what you need.

Oops! My bad. Sorry I missed that. Those are the same ones I have on my Professional.

I believe that you will be looking for something like the Grover 102-18C. These have the 18:1 ratio and have the screw tab on the side. Unfortunately they only come 6 to a pack.

Here's the link to the Grover website

James, do you know just how many styles of tuners that Sho-Bud used?
