That was too quick, which means I probably didn't ask enough for them ... |

Which doesn't mean anything to Dave, I know.

Location: Phoenix AZ | There you go. I had no idea they were schaller. Not marked anywhere with a logo or name. They are nice tuners. I took them off a 6773 and replaced them with the same thing in gold finish. |

For nylon I now play a Takamine TC132-SC with CoolTube. Nice guitar |

FD14 - Not without major drilling
U681 - Not witrhout major drilling
6773LX - Yes but screw holes do not line up
The tapered headstock nylons of today (1773LX, 2073LX, 6773LX, 2773LX) use individual tuners, not 3 on-a-plate. |

Location: Parrish, FL | Too bad, I like the looks of the 3 on-a-plate tuners on a slothead MUCH better that the current individual tuners.
I guess I'll have to pickup an older folklore to satisfy that craving.

Dave\'s tuners on Schaller page
Blues, there should be the possibility to get the plate as a spare part, with which you could "tune" your tuners to 3on-a-plate ones.
3 on-a-plate

Thanks. Good information. I'll keep it in mind should I get serious about making the switch.
Question: Wouldn't the polished Schaller's have the same hole spacing issues as the ones's Dave sold?
Also, most of the attraction of the 3-on-a plate styling is the open tuners and the etching on the plate itself.

funny, I made a switch from the ones Dave sold to the M-style ones, because I didn't like the looks of those classical ones on my Josh White Reissue. And, besides, I had them on two of my guitars and don't think they are too precise.
As far as I remember the plates should cover all the holes - but for sure, you'd have to drill new screw holes.
If interested, I will take a picture tomorrow to be sure if all the holes will be covered after a switch.
Best regards,
Kurt |
