ANTIQUE ACOUSTICS REPLICA TUNERS - SLOT-HEAD 6-STRING The world of vintage guitars is always in need of expert restoration work, so as to preserve the vital essence of the instruments. Such work often requires "parts," originals of which are always in very short supply, especially those parts which are prone to wearing out with age and use, such as tuning machines. When originals cannot be found, high quality replicas are an obvious alternative, though often difficult to come by. Now, two German luthiers, very active in the vintage instrument restoration realm have developed fine replicas of tuning machines produced in the late '1920's to the late 1940's. These are 3-on-a-plate style for 6-string guitars with slotted headstocks and all feature brass plates & posts, .236" post diameter and a post spacing of 1.3775"(on-center), steel worm gear and small oval buttons. Beyond that the variety spans brass or nickle plated plates and plain or engraved plates. These are a great resource for anyone involved with restoration work or for anyone wanting to add a vintage feel to a new guitar. Other variations: |
