During cost-cutting at Fender it was decided to bring the production of machineheads (and other assorted hardware) in-house in order to modernise production and reduce spending. The Fender "F" chrome tuners, most popularly recognised on 1970s Fender guitars and a partner to CBS's larger headstock shape, was the result.
These are genuine Fender items in chrome with the F logo stamped into the rear casing. Carefully aged to accurately replicate forty years of use, these are suitable for all of the CBS-era instruments from 1966 onwards and come with all bushings and screws needed (and aged to the same extent) so you only need to slot them straight into your headstock and screw them in and you're ready to go!
