Mark 4 parts question

[maurolt]

I have a 80's Mark 4 and it has a bent tuning peg and the metal piece that goes on the headstock. Anybody know where can I get these parts, can I get them form Guild?

Welcome. I would not expect these to be available from Guild. In general they have no information about instruments prior to 2010 and often when they venture a comment most of here think their answer is wrong. Pictures will help us confirm our guesses and smarter people than me can probably tell you what to buy.

I don't know about smarter. Maybe more knowledgeable.

Classical tuners are pretty much standard, and unless the Mark 4 was different than other Marks, any decent classical tuner set will be a fit. Of course, that would require changing the whole set. Stewmac has them in prices from around $25 to over $300. If it were mine, I'd go for the Schaller or Gotoh sets, both under $100. https://www.stewmac.com/parts-and-hardware/tuning-machines/classical-guitar-tuning-machines/

Thanks Brad. I've ordered the Schaller nickel plated since they are very similar to the tuning machine currently on the Mark IV.
