Hi guys,

Anyone knows why that is so? It looks odd and the tuner kind of drills into the styrofoam of the Fender molded case.
The blueprint shows five even sized tuners. Doesn't make any sense to me.

are you sure it's longer and just not sticking out farther because it's on the other side of the headstock closer to the edge (down by the corner : YES reference).

No, the shaft is 7mm/0.28" longer. It has two machined rings, the others have only one.

Sounds like a non-stock tuner. You bought it in 2005 like this or did you buy it used? Sounds like the tuner got changed at some point before you got it. They should all be the same unless it has a drop tuner which 5 string instruments normally won't have. Even then the shaft is the same length.
