My JB 335 has the new Gibson Single Line Deluxe tuners.

I don't like them. The tourque is really low (ie, it takes no effort to turn them).
I prefer the stiffness of the shrunken Page23 Klusons from Fake58.

I might look around for a new set of aged Klusons for the 335. I'm tempted to get some Double Ring Klusons.

I think Gibson is using the Gotoh vintage line, but custom made (with script). But not sure if you can order this exact Gibson model.

there are replacement double ring tuner tips available at a certain ebay shop, I think the user's name there is something like blackhorse. They cost around 10$ and that is the most possible bang for the buck

edit: sorry, it's not blackhorse, it's blackrider and it's 16 bucks: http://www.ebay.com/itm/DOUBLE-RING...352?pt=Guitar_Accessories&hash=item53f59f3d18

Thought they were Klusons. WD is the exclusive on those, I believe. People, let me know if this is not correct. Also, your '57, is it Gloss or VOS?

Thanks, I'm going to see if Crazyparts have any in Germany. Failing that, I'll be contacting one of the traders on this forum who sells them and does nice relic work on them.
