The GBR640 is part of GOTOH's Res-o-lite series of super lightweight bass tuning machines heads. GOTOH was able to achieve excellent weight savings by using a special alloy call "duralumin". These lightweight tuning machines are able to help the tendency for bass guitars to "neck dive" and also make long playing sessions more comfortable.
Guitar and Bass tuning machines are described by the side the headstock the machine mounts to when the headstock is viewed from the front. "L" is left side and "R" is right side. Please remember this when placing your order.
This listing is for preconfigured sets. Individual bass tuning machines are available in another listing for a customer looking for a custom configuration or for a replacement tuner.

GOTOH GBR640 Res-o-lite Reverse Wind Bass Tuning Machines
These are lite that's for sure. The footprint and screw holes matched up to the Vintage style Fenders they replaced. Tension adjustment is an added bonus. Worth the money.

Gotoh GBR640
Perfect drop-in set for my Fender Custom Shop ‘64 Jazz Bass with reverse tuners. It takes off a full half pound from the stock set.

GBR640 Res-o-lite Tuners
This is my second set of these, and I can't find anything negative to say about them. They're smooth-turning, among the lightest out there, stay solidly in tune and have that vintage Fender look. Well worth the $$$.
