tuner hole slack?

[arjepsen]

Hey. I just received my order for a new lp warmoth.
I bought some grover tuners (I thnk they're standard, with the 18:1 ratio)
On the pack it says hole size .391 (25/64)
When I ordered the neck, I chose the hole size that mentioned gotoh/grover (13/32 - 11/32).
Now, when I put the tuners in the holes, it's not a snug fit - there is a bit of wiggle room.
Will this be a problem, or will things be ok when I tighten the not?
Or should I buy a new set of gotoh sg38's in hope that they are a tighter fit?

Regards
Anders

I've experienced this before.  What I did was to take a little aluminum tape, cut it to size, and wrap it around the bushings.  Do it slowly, building up a little thickness at a time, until it is snug.  I've done this several times on several guitars.  It works just fine for me.

Good idea. I'll remember this trick.
