REPLACING MANDOLIN TUNERS
It's unlikely you will find an exact replacement set for many mandolins, especially for older models. In this case just choose a set which looks like it will suit the instrument and cover the original screw holes.

Most mandolins have a standard 23mm (29/32") roller spacing centre-to-centre. Some use other spacings. If your mandolin has a different spacing you will need to have a set custom made.

The screw holes often will not line up. If this is the case you can usually drill new holes without any issues. If a hole overlaps but doesn't line up with the new set you will need to fill it and drill a new hole in the correct place.
