I have a customer who lost the gear and retaining screw from the tuner for his B string.

Chris at LMI tried to obtain replacement parts from Gotoh without success. So I had to break up a new set, resulting in five little orphans.

They sell some of the closed tunes individually but not the vintage style. Has anyone else had a similar experience? If so would you consider selling selling singles?

The missing gear is on the B string.
