Schaller M6 180 Guitar Tuning Machine
The Schaller M6 180 guitar tuning machine delivers outstanding precision and tuning stability with an improved 1:18 gear ratio. All components are precision CNC-machined, surface-finished, and feature a self-locking mechanism that guarantees smooth, sensitive, and reliable operation.
Equipped with high-grade brass string posts engineered for wear-free durability, this tuning machine incorporates the innovative stepped M6 flanged washer. This collar design effortlessly centers the string post through the headstock without requiring stepped drilling, eliminating tilt torque and protecting against stress.
Permanently lubricated with Schaller special grease for completely maintenance-free performance, the M6 180 serves as a direct drop-in replacement for earlier models while maintaining the highest engineering standards.
