pretty rare item. I'd like to avoid buying a beater just for the pegs but I thought I would try. see if anyone is holding a set.

Have you tried asking Al?
He has some silver ones listed on eBay
So he may have others.

I've seen his Folklore pegs. I will email him. There's a 1613 for sale on Reverb, local pick up only that's pretty rough. I might make an offer...let him keep the guitar and just send me the pegs, screws and truss rod screws.

Hi,
I was looking for them on the Schaller homepage, they are no longer available. Thomann, the bigest online distributer in Germany have no more as well.
So to get them new is not easy and the used ones are almost worn out.
You need then for a classical with the sleeves for nylon strings or the thin ones for steel strings?

Let me know, maybe I can help you.

This is the new generation from Schaller....

open ones "GrandTune". They are finest quality. I've put them on my selfmade Viper.

Another way to go is to install the single pegs from the newer slothead guitars. In former days they had nice plates below, but I think the plates are also no longer available. http://www.ovationfanclub.com/megabbs/photos/show-album.asp?albumid...
I have a new set installed in a Framus Parlor guitar, half a year ago. I took off the plastic sleeves because it has steel strings, but with ball bearings to fit the hole in the middle. If you want them I'll send you pictures of them and the price I paid..... It's the same set as from the 1713 but new with the Schaller-logo instead of the Ovation-logo.

John,

Today is your lucky day. I've got a set of NIB NOS Schaller MKGO 541 Classical/Acoustic Guitar Machine Head MK - Gold/ Acrylic button (read: Hen's Teeth) that I'd be willing to let go for what I paid.

I was able to find two sets and one went on Patch's Parlor.

How does $90 + shipping sound?
