It seems I have managed to crack the black button (I would personally call it a "knob" but it seems "button" is the correct term) on one of the Grover tuners on my LFDM tenor. This is the part you put your fingers on to turn the tuner. I am not sure how it happened but likely involved a string winder in some way even though I am quite careful and there would never be much reason to use much force when winding. I am not sure how deep the crack is. You can certainly see it on the surface on one side. I have a feeling it is quite deep and eventually the button will probably split. The tuner seems to be a Grover Sta-Tite #9 series. I've written to Luis to ask it to confirm. I think the button is just plastic. Does anybody know if the button can simply be screwed off and replaced?
