Let me begin by saying... "Yes I did use the search function!" and still I can't seem to find the answer. I know that once I post this someone most likely will be able to find what I've been looking for during the past 3 hours.
I was lucky enough to buy an older Kamaka Uke. Soprano with the Gold label on it. It is currently at a repair shop to fix some cracks, but as I gave the Uke to the repair person she mentioned that the Tuning Pegs did not seem to look like the ones she had seen in other Kamakas.
After looking around on the forums I read that Kamaka Ukes usually come with the Schaller Tuning pegs. The pegs on my Uke are definitely not the same. As much as possible I want to keep the Uke as close to the original as possible.
So long story short, has Kamaka always used these Schaller ones or could I have pegs that they used to use? Also, does anyone know of any online stores that sell the Pegs?
Thanks in advance.
