Hi if this thread has been covered before, apologies. I've had my Ovation since 1983. I stopped playing for a long time but thankfully my son found it several years ago and had it refurbished. I've been playing it since and really enjoy it again. It's in great condition, but I went to change the strings the other day and one of the strings is now slipping. I've taken it to my local guitar shop and they've told me I need to replace the machine head. They've tried to source and come to a dead end. They are the original tunersfir the 1639 - Schaller, two screw fix, black. Appreciate it if anyone can help as I don't really want to end up with new tuners and new fixing positions. Many thanks.

Hi and Welcome. Upon your response we'll upgrade you to full member so you can post in the wanted or general area and folks can get back to you. Someone likely has an original replacement sitting in a box somewhere.
