Prolly on a loser but worth an ask! early 1980's Yamaha 512 12 string tuners (open headstock) - any chance ? One of the cogs has stripped and so can't be strung. Can't find same size tuners anywhere. I was hoping to find just the cog so I can replace it but happy to purchase full strip or two. Be grateful for a heads up
Is this a FG-512 or FG-512II?? I have a FG-512. The II version was made 1981 to 1985.
Assuming they both use the same tuners, and assuming Many of Yamaha's tuners use the same gears, I might have something in my boneyard. I'll have to look tomorrow.
That would be fab - if it's not too much trouble? I love this guitar - even if my son did gig it a bit ...🙄😁 hence the cog! It's my son and grandson who will eventually get my guitars - they are much better players than I ever was

I'm sorry!! I forgot!! I've been very busy working on a couple of guitars and I tend to tune out everything else. I will try to take a look tonight. My FG-512 neck is hanging next to my computer! And I have a box of parts somewhere.
