This video is just what I was looking for with regards to the screw on top of the tuner. I've read about tightening the nut on top of the headstock that holds the tuner in place. I've done this on my Telecaster and Les Paul and it made a good difference, in terms of stability and tone.
just grabbed a junk guitar, strung it up. an had this horrible buzz when playing any open string... that screw you mentioned at 0:55 solved my problem haha it was really loose, allowing the key to dance. didn't even know that little sucker was there
How do I get the cap cover off so I can grease the gear? I've watched other videos where they easily tap the opposite pin head, causing the cap cover to fall off, but that's not happening to me.
How do you fix the play/slack in a sealed tuner? E.g. I can turn it but it does not actually turn the page until I have spun the knob about 1/3 turn, then it turns the peg. There is slack in the tuner.
My tuning machines have a different wording for each one (L1, L2, L3, L3, L4, L4). I think it's the order but I don't know which one goes to the low E and so on... Any help please?
Bit late of a reply but that suggests to me that they are staggered tuners and are all different lengths, the purpose for these are to keep the break angle of the string over the nut to the tuner the same on a non angled headstock (fender) and so the shortest one goes furthest away from the nut. Search staggered tuners if you are still confused.
@@andrewcollins4458 yeah, I know about the staggered tuners... These ones seems like aren't so. Mounted 'em without problems... I was just wondering if they had any different ratio from each other.
@@lovecraftmusic8717 Not heard of tuner sets with different ratio,s but that doesn't mean they don't exist, at next string change you can count how many turns for one revolution but as long as there working well it,s all good.
Hi, I recently (accidentally) hit and bent my high e string tuner peg. Obviously I’m very annoyed with myself right now but I was wondering whether it will affect my guitar in the long run with regards to staying in tune or any other problems??
My tunning peg the long gear on the inside that the wheel shaped gear turns when it spins has pushed out so it wont turn the post anymore if you know what i mean, can i adjust or fix it??
At the end when you say "Tune it" you are actually loosening the string. Unless you horribly over tuned it you are going the wrong way. You can't fool me . . . lol . . . just messin' with ya man.
I've always felt that pegs need attention sometimes.
Thanks for making this video.
Exactly the thing I needed to stop my tuning peg from jumping loose fast

Hi @Westworld Music, do you have any recommendations on how to clean and polish tuning pegs?

Also shows how to put new strings on correctly

He said to wrap it 3-4 times, but then he only wraps it twice….lol.

Screws keep undoing and come out of mine, annoying
