Schaller M6 135 Guitar Tuning Machine
The Schaller M6 135 features an improved 1:18 gear ratio that ensures velvet-smooth operation, fine sensitivity, and exceptional tuning accuracy. Setting the global benchmark for sealed tuning machines since 1966, this updated iteration delivers modern mechanical precision while preserving the classic aesthetic and feel of the original series.
Every component is CNC-machined to tight tolerances, surface-finished, and driven by a self-locking mechanism for maximum pitch stability. Premium brass string posts are fitted into the sealed housing with Schaller permanent grease lubrication for life-long, maintenance-free performance.
Installation is simplified through the innovative stepped M6 flanged washer, which centers the post via the banjo bolt and eliminates the need for stepped headstock drilling. With identical mounting dimensions to its legacy predecessor, this machine installs directly without instrument modifications.
