Description
The Gotoh GB10 is a vintage-style, open-gear bass machine head from Gotoh's Regular series, made in Japan. Found on many vintage and modern Fender-style basses, it pairs large cloverleaf tuning keys with a re-engineered bearing structure and "friction-free ring" for smooth, stable turning. String posts measure 7/16" (~11mm) and require a 9/16" (~14–15mm) peghole; mounting screws and press-in bushings are included.
This set is configured 4-in-line (four left, right-handed) for standard 4-string bass headstocks, plated in nickel. At roughly 88g (3.11oz) each, the GB10 delivers authentic vintage looks and Gotoh reliability—an ideal retrofit for '70s-style and modern Fender-type basses.
