Hipshot® Grip-Lock™ tuning machines are the easiest way to class up the look, feel, and functionality of your headstock. The open gear design elegantly blends modern and vintage sensibilities. The 18:1 tuning ratio and locking feature give you the easiest stringing and best tuning stability available on the market. It’s no wonder this tuning machine is the choice of the most knowledgeable players in the industry. Tuning machines are sold individually to accommodate nontraditional configurations (i.e. 4+2 or 7 inline) 18:1 tuning ratio for superfine adjustment Grip-Lock™ pin and thumb wheel system clamps onto your string end for complete tuning stability without string winds around the post String post hole fits strings up to .060" Compatible with 13/32" [10mm] headstock holes Open gear tuners come with HS buttons by default String posts available in a variety of lengths for the optimum break angle over the nut Bass or treble side mounting options Bass side and treble side are references to the orientation of the tuner. More specifically the side of the headstock the tuning machine should be mounted on. A bass side tuning machine has the tuning shaft protruding from the right side of the tuner and a treble side tuner has the shaft protruding from the left side. For example, a right handed jazz bass would have all tuners on the bass side. A reverse headstock or left handed jazz bass would have all treble side tuners.
