Replacement Hamer bass machines/bridge


planetgaffnet

Question

Posted

Last year I purchase a really sweet black FBIV bass...I was pretty taken with a photo someone had posted on one the forums of a similar bass with all-black hardware. I've been watching eBay and here for a replacement bridge and machines, but to no avail, so I guess I'm looking at swapping out the originals with third party hardware to obtain the look.

I think I'm correct in assuming the bridge is essentially a (Hamer-stamped) Schaller 3D-4, but anyone have any idea what the ideal machines replacement would be?

Thanks!

Double line Schaller M4s.

I may have a complete Hamer-branded black set from a late '80s bass. I'll check to confirm that they are the non-reverse ("Lefty") headstock version.

PM/email me if you're interested!

I've gone with the Schallers...I got a great deal through a distributor about 30 miles away from me here in the UK, so I'm going to pick them up on the 19th. That said, I have to say I'd be tempted by the black bridge if it's in reasonable condition!

cheers

I sold the Hamer-branded black bridge to another HFC'er a couple of years ago. Just have the tuners, sorry!
