I have a Grabber which needs new tuners, which tuners keep the looks and are good? And what kind of bridge shall I choose? Badass? And how easy is it to replace?
I need to order the parts today, cause I have to go to the studio from sunday.

My bassist in high school got one of these and got a badass bridge. He replaced it himself just fine.

Thanks, that's nice to know!

And with tuners, will everything fit? Or isn't there something like standardized tuner holes?

That I don't know but I'm sure there's a standard. I've never seen a need to replace tuners so I'm not the right one to ask.

Badass will require drilling new holes. Getting a normal three point bass bridge or a hipshot supertone will not.

Hipshot makes a drop in replacement for the grabber. But I think the bridges on grabbers vary.

Thanks for the tips

That Hipshot Supertone seems great, it'll make me keep the string through body stuff.. Which one is that drop-in replacement for the Grabber?
