I’m wondering if I may have been sold fakes or if Grover manufacturing standards have fallen. If it's the latter, I don’t want to throw any more money away. Has anyone used 85B tuners recently and found them to be good?
About 15 years ago, I put a set of these on a second hand uke and LOVED them. I purchased another set on EBay for my current tenor build and they're terrible. They look more or less as I remembered but the holes for the strings have a nasty burr, they won’t hold tension unless they're too tight to move and they have an unimpressive amount of play/backlash.
The transaction seems to be just outside my available eBay purchase history.
Thanks,
Paul
