TUNERS
Precision gear heads for reliable tuning stability.
Machine heads—also known as tuners, tuning keys, or pegs—are the primary mechanical link between your hands and your instrument's pitch. Upgrading your tuners is often the single most effective way to improve a guitar's reliability and performance. A high-quality set ensures smooth, precise operation, allowing you to focus on your playing instead of constantly fighting tuning drift.

How to choose the right tuners for your instrument?
The variety of tuning machines on the market can be overwhelming, so the first step is identifying the specific requirements of your headstock.
Instrument Type: Classical guitars require specialized rollers for nylon strings, while electric and acoustic guitars often share similar designs.
Configuration: Check your headstock layout—do you need a 6-in-line set (common for Strats), a 3L+3R configuration (Les Paul style), or a specific bass set?
Mounting Specs: Pay close attention to the mounting hardware. Modern tuners typically use a threaded nut and washer on the face of the headstock, while vintage-style models often use pressed-in bushings. Always check the screw hole pattern on the back (single screw, dual screw, or pin-mounted) to ensure a "drop-in" fit without the need for extra drilling.
Understanding Gear Ratio
Modern tuners use geared mechanisms to provide far greater precision than traditional friction pegs. The gear ratio (e.g., 18:1 or 21:1) tells you how many turns of the button result in one full rotation of the string post.
Higher ratios allow for finer, more granular tuning—perfect for studio work and precision setups.
Enclosed vs. Open-Gear: Most modern tuners feature sealed, permanently lubricated housings for longevity. However, we also stock high-quality open-gear tuners for players who want a vintage aesthetic without sacrificing mechanical performance.
