Firebird 6 In Line Treble Set Of Banjo Tuners with Metal Keystone Buttons
After more than 40 years, Kluson has just reissued the Firebird/Banjo tuners in all their original glory! Kluson stayed true to the design in virtually every aspect using planetary gears with the 12:1 ratio (wind rate = to 14.6:1 ratio), the exact mounting screw pattern, housing size and appearance with the 5/16 inch string post. Because these tuners have a larger string post the tuners do require the original larger peg hole which is very similar in size to what is used for modern die-cast tuners. The “T" and“B"� on the bottom plates depict treble or bass side and are only visible when tuning machine is not installed. Kluson Firebird/banjo tuners are available in gold, nickel and chrome plating in sets of 6 in line as listed here, 2 + 2 sets for banjo and bass and individually.

Button Shaft dims = 5/32 in. (3.97mm) w/ opposing flat sides
