Sperzel Tuners

I was checking out some tuners and I realized that sperzels dont have the little bracket for the mini screw. what I want to ask the Sperzel owners is does the tuner move around at all? If you can, could you explain it?

There is a lock post underneath the housing. You have to drill a hole in your headstock for it (just like you would for a set screw).

I could only find a pic of one with the drop-D option, but you can still see the post quite clearly.

You know, I want one of those drop-d attachments. I just don't want to pay $80 for it.

Hmm. Sperzel says $60 MSRP - of course, everywhere I've seen one they've sold it with the tuner attached, so maybe I should contact Sperzel directly?

The tuners? Yes. I'd prefer a bigger ratio (they're only 12:1), but they're rock-solid - I've had no tuning issues with them.

The D-Thing? Dunno, but all of their other stuff is excellent, so...

Maybe they'll do a volume discount thing? I'd be in for a few...

GO FOR THE PLANET WAVES AUTO TRIMS.
THEY'RE 18/1 RATIO, THEY TRIM OFF THE EXCESS STRING, & THEY'RE A TAD LESS EXPENSIVE THAN SPERZELS.

A FRIEND OF MINE HAS THEM ON HIS JACKSON, & THEY WORK QUITE WELL.
