Looking for some advice. I recently came across a Harmony bicentennial 5 tring in great shape. Th only problem is that one of the strap tuners is missing the gear and screw. I have the post, bushing, and everything else. Id like to keep it original if I can find the correct gear, but if I have to change them out, I guess I would but in some planetary tuners. I've tried some gears from a guitar, and another cheap banjo, and while the gear sizes match, the post wont fit with it.
Any idea where to source one, and if not, any advice on installing new planetary tuners. Thanks.
