D-tuner or bass xtender

Post by nperis »

Hi all,

New 4003 owner here.
Just found out the Hipshot BT-5 are discontinued.

Anyone knows where I might find one?

Cheers,
Nick

The tuner key on the BT5 sticks out quite a bit more than the stock Schaller tuner, which looks pretty wonky. If you call Hipshot, I believe they'll let you send in your original tuner to be converted to a drop tuner.

Thanks Aceonbass, I'm in touch with them. Will update the post but yes it seems you can still order them.
