Machine heads without a sealed gear are criticized for not having the same smooth performance, efficiency and durability that sealed gear tuners have. The SD series solves these problems by combining "Rock-solid" technology and the post collar or: "Self-Center Guide", found on enclosed gears in the base plate of the gear allowing the post to perfectly align itself with the bushing which attaches the gear to the headstock. The SD series uses a torque balancer to ensure steady rotation of the tuner button giving high quality sound performance as well as great functionality. Through its use of the ideal materials selected for each component part you also obtain a far superior sound. Mounting hardware included.

Direct Drop-in compact bass machine heads with threaded bushings for 9/16'' diameter peg holes. Gotoh's Res-O-Lite machine heads are extremely light weight (59.2 grams each) from aluminum alloy to make for a less neck heavy bass. Features a 26:1 Gear Ratio. 4 In Line config, fits many Standard American and Mexican basses. Also the key post can be removed and replaced on opposing side. Come in 4 on a side. Mounting hardware included. Super lightweight bass machine heads. Bass guitars have weighty machine heads and by their very nature have always suffered from “neck-dive”. With the advent of 5 and 6 string basses, this tendency became still more acute, making long sessions uncomfortable for the musician. The RES-O-LITE series was developed to solve this problem. By chiefly using the special alloy “duralumin”, excellent weight savings are achieved.
