| Hi Everyone!
I'm new to the bboard! Just wondering if anybody can point me in the direction for finding replacement tuners for my Ovation Breadwinner. They are chrome (silver) with black casing. Any info would be great! Cheers!!!---Jon |

Location: SoCal | I'm guessing that Al or Miles might have some. But if not, I've got a set that is on a maple Viper neck that I was planning to sell with the neck. We can talk about it.
Where are you located? |

| Hi Paul,
I'm located in Bolingbrook, IL (suburb of Chicago). Just to clarify, the mounting screws on the tuners are set at an angle, not straight across. I'd definelty be interested if you were to sell them, but perhaps minus the neck. Cheers!!!---Jon |

Location: Scotland | The Breadwinner had black nylon-bodied Schaller M6 machines. Stew-mac or All-Parts should have them. |

Location: San Bernardino, California | The correct designation is M6n. All-Parts only has the 12-string version (smaller knobs.) |

Location: Lafayette, Louisiana | Miles, did some Ovation acoustics have these tuners? I think I have seen them on some older Balladeers. |

I was going to send you a pic this morning of my tuners, but the screw stubs are not at an angle. They are straight up and down on the tuner (but offset, one in and one out from the tuning key). I can still send a pic if you'd like, but it sounds like Miles or Al will have what you need. |

| I don't have a picture of what my tuners look like, but I did spot a similar one on Ebay that has the same mounting screw placement. I'm still interested in acquiring the tuners in either all chrome, all black, or with the black casing. Cheers!!!---Jon
