I need help to repair my Distillate. After an accidental forward fall during rehearsal (me with the bass) the headstock hit the ground and my chin hit a hard object. While my chin and knee are sore my Alembic suffered a broken D string tuning key. Does anyone know where I can get a single chrome Schaller? I spoke to Mica and was told they don't use these anymore. (my bass is from 1985) There are also a little damage to the top edge of the crown peghead but that's just cosmetic. Any help or suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Jeff~ |

Jeff - try this: http://www.allparts.com/Bass-Tuning-Keys-s/171.htm?searching=Y&sort=7&cat=171&show=20&page=2 Not sure exactly what type of Schaller you need, but All Parts usually has what most are looking for. Hope this helps, Alan |

Alan, It appears they have the M4 tuning key I need. I can get this ordered now and be back to playing it again. I can't thank you enough for the help! You all are the best. :-) Jeff~ |
