I have an set of original tuners (Waverly?) that can be found on 1930's era Rickenbacker A-22 and A-25 fry pan lap steels and National Style O and Duolians among several other guitars from that era. Suffice to say, these near 90 year old tuners are extremely difficult to find especially still in good condition and with their ORIGINAL ivoroid buttons. Not cheap but good luck finding another set. $325 + shipping.

Good luck finding this rare set of tuners when you might need them. I also have quite a few other sets of vintage and rare tuners (Grover, Kluson & Waverly) so email me if you're looking for something specific.

What is the diameter of the posts?
New Waverly posts are 6mm(0.237”) and that’s just enough doesn’t fit -
5.57+\- mm or 7/32” should work-
What do you have?

That should fit ! Only other concern about mounting it on A-22 aluminum headstock, is that, it’s mounted with “ machine screws” with slightly larger diameter than wood screws used on wood slotted headstock. I think A-22 came with plain rectangular plate, but this should work I think-

I sent you an email and a PM a few days ago. Did you receive either?

Tuners still available but, considering they are about 80 years old, I'm surprised. So TTT it is.
