  • Aw Dude, I was soooooooo waiting for you to try that high note LOL
  • Nice price! I must have been looking at the chrome section or something. That's a big savings.
  • here's my shopping list for the tuners:
    (home depot is the only place i've found with 3" long eye bolts of this size, so these prices are current Home Depot prices)

    3/16"x3 eye bolts (2 in a pack with 2 nuts) = $.98
    3/16" x 24 thread wing nuts (4 in a pack) = $.98
    #10 washers (20 in a pack) = $.98

    so, for a six stringer, we'd have 3 packs of eye bolts, 2 packs of wing nuts, and 1 pack of washers.
    that's 6 items at $.98 per pack...

    $5.88 for six tuners.

    or $.98 per tuner.

    plus no shipping costs, and no waiting. you can resupply on a moment's notice, in any town, by counting the change from the couch cushions. even towns that have (gasp) no internet, and no music stores!
  • Hi Crow, about how much does all the hardware cost to make 6 tuners? Is it significantly cheaper than a $22+ship set of chinese machines? If eye bolts are ~$1.50 that's already about $10 with tax. I'm a cheapskate to be sure, but if it's only a few dollars difference,I'll stick with the speed and precision of 14:1.

    The eyebolts do look cool though and have more DIY cred!
  • Thanks for this video, it helps a lot
