I often loose these bushings
( Image )

I have now lost one of them, and my string broke on that tuner, I need to play tomorrow and can I put a string on a tuner without a bushing?
What is the meaning of those ?
Where can I get for cheap, cause they often fall of my mexican stratocaster. :/

I dunno where you get them in latvia, but I order them from guitar fetish.

I've seen plenty of guitars strung up without them.

It wont damage the tuners drastically ?

I might order a pair of those from guitarfetish, the shipping will be a lout, but oh well.
For now will try to play with out it.

Thanks.

I have an old shitty acoustic that's missing one of the bushings. It hasn't harmed the machine head, but that string goes out of tune incredibly fast.

Oh, that would be great, I just think the shipping would be a lot. :/

I noticed it going out of tune faster.. true.

If I buy on ebay it comes around 30$ with shipping.. bvah.
I will go to my 'licensed' fender store here. Cheeeck it out.
