Any one have a source for slot head mandolin tuners? Preferably in N. America, or Asia if low cost shipping is available? I just need 1 set. I found some from Australian Luthiers Supply, but the tuners and shipping for 1 set are creeping up on $100. I haven't been able to find anything else. If I can't find anything, I'll probably get some that are made for solid peg heads and convert them to slot head by modifying the posts. There are several factories making slot head 8 string ukes, kind of wondering where they get their tuners. I also thought about using individual tuners (Sta Tites) but by the time you get 4 in a row, the peg head of the uke looks insanely long - kind of overpowers the fret board in overall scale.
Any info would be appreciated.
