Replacing Tuning peg - Electric Guitar

    Hi guys,

    Went to put new strings on my guitar (crappy squire telecaster) today and noticed there's a part missing!

    See Pic:

    It's the part of the tuning peg you stick the string into. I have no idea how it came out or where it even is :(

    Is it hard to find replacement parts for this, and is it just a matter of screwing that part in once I get one?

    Haven't played this guitar in ages as I've mostly been playing the acoustic.


    Thanks a million

    Nah thats not a hard part to come by! Just pop into any music shop and they will sort you out!

    Or here: http://store.guitarfetish.com/festsonsi.html

    not sure if they come in singles though!
