Schaller M6 180 Guitar Tuning Machine
The Schaller M6 180 tuning machine delivers exceptional tuning precision and stability with its refined 1:18 gear ratio. Continuing the legacy established by the original closed tuning machine standard in 1966, this updated design combines timeless aesthetics with modern mechanical engineering.
Precision CNC-machined components and high-grade brass posts ensure smooth, wear-free performance, while the self-locking drive provides lasting pitch stability. The enclosed housing is permanently lubricated with Schaller specialized grease for completely maintenance-free operation.
Equipped with an innovative stepped flanged washer, the mechanism centers the string post securely without requiring stepped headstock drilling. This design eliminates tilting forces, distributing pressure evenly across the mounting assembly to protect instrument hardware.
