I'm looking for a pair of 4-in-a-row (not individual) tuners for a 1952 Fender Stringmaster. Larry

Hey, Larry - long time no hear or see. Hope all is going well with you. I've kinda been out of circulation for the last 3 years or so.
Anyway, sorry to say I have no tuners, but at least I can give you a bump and offer my thanks again for that old Dual Professional you sent me (not to mention also that beautiful '63 blonde/oxblood Reverb unit- sweet.
Check my post re Fender Roman Numeral Fretbrds, etc...to see that Dual.
Best to you...John H.

Aloha e' Larry, see what said in this discussion :-

The tuners can't be bought as per original, so a workaround has to be formulated and used..
If the one you're working on hasn't got "Lollypop" tuners and chrome pickup covers then it's a Mk2 and is 1955 or later.. IMHO
May I be the first to wish you Mele Kalikimaka me ka Hau'oli Makahiki Hou..
BTW Stringmasters weren't made until LATE 1953..
I have an Oct 1953 one ..
The first public performance of this guitar since the restoration by Alan Brookes:-
