    Lightest Music Man Replacement Tuners?

    What are the lightest tuners available for Music Man basses (pre-Special models)? I am talking replacements for the Schaller BM's.

    I've never felt strongly either way about Markbass, and I've not heard any of the new MB58R series cabs. But, a one 12" cab with horn that weighs about 23 lbs? I am intrigued!
