What are these pegs and how do I get them gone?

[IOnlyPlayCello]

I bought a violin off Facebook Marketplace for cheap expecting a project instrument that I could use to keep me occupied. It’s a fully carved workshop instrument and honestly it’s kind of fine aside from the pegs.

 They are some old mechanical pegs (I’ll leave my personal vendetta against mechanical pegs out of this) and the E strings peg is broken so it needs to be replaced. I assume there is no hope for finding the same pegs now so I just want to remove them but as you can see there is this metal bushing set into the wood on the tapered end of the peg. I can’t tell if it’s pressure fit, glued, or screwed in but I’m not sure how to get it out. I’ve tried to pull and tap it out but if I use much more force I fear I’ll have to deal with a peg box crack on top of this.

P.S. I am aware that there is a good chance I will have to fill the current holes and ream new ones

As a reference the instrument is a glaesel v131p from 1982. As far as i can tell these are not the standard pegs that come on the violin but I’m not super sure about that. Also I promise I wasn’t using the multi tool in the background on the violin…
