The new improved version

of the TGP0562BK tuner now has the

Pro Series 18 to 1 gear ratio.

G Series Tuners are normally 15 to 1

~

The original TGP0562BK button was made from a

material that had a “rubbery” feel to it; this button was

very prone to cracking and splitting if it became too dry.

The new improved version of the TGP0562BK is

manufactured from a composite that is impervious

to degeneration due to dryness.

The new button feels more like wood not rubber.

It should be noted that that original button was a

“Slope Shoulder” design whereas the new improved

tuner features a “Square Shoulder” button. The

footprints of the tuner platforms are identical.

~

The set will include:

6 Gold Machine Heads

6 Faux Wooden Buttons

6 Gold Screw in Bushings

6 Gold Screws

6 Gold Tuner Washers

*18 to 1 gear ratio !

*This means you have to turn the machine head button 36 times

for the string tuning post (capstan) to go around one time.

(36 turns equal 18 complete rotations of the Machine head button.)

The Takamine 18 to 1 gear ratio offers

tight accurate tuning without slippage!

These tuners are designed for the

Takamine G Series guitar and will fit many

Takamine Pro Series instruments as well.

These tuners may work for some other brands as well.

Verify the “footprint” of your guitars machine head.

The “footprint” is the shape of the machine head (tuner)

platform that rests against the back of the guitars head stock.

Verify the location of the screw placement on the Machine Head

(tuner) platform and make sure it matches your current part,

if it does not match you will need to drill a new hole for the screw.

These tuners can work for any 3 tuner per side

head stock but some modification may be required.

Special Notice:

Have just one broken tuner ?

AddictedToToneInc may have

a single Machine Head for sale.

Sometimes in this fast paced electronics driven world we lose touch with the “humanity”

that is represented by all of the internet listings, fax and e-mail numbers.

I am a real person; I am not just a number.

I welcome your questions and speaking with you personally.

Please feel free to contact me

Tonefully – Bill / AddictedToToneInc.

I only use sturdy shipping boxes to prevent damage to the item you have purchased.

As a consumer I understand the desire to save a couple dollars whenever possible,

please understand that I have tried alternative “cheaper” shipping methods

and was not pleased with the result – to much damage!

I do not make any “extra” money on shipping.

The shipping price is calculated to include the carrier delivery fees

to your specific location and fees imposed on the item by eBay and PayPal.

 I package items VERY well and ship very promptly!

RETURNS & SHIPPING

AddictedToToneInc does not accept returns.

The item listed in this ad is designed to improve the tone

of your Takamine guitar or for replacing a defective component.

I can help you diagnose the problem with your Takamine system.

Please contact me before you order an item you do not actually need.

AddictedToToneInc does not accept returns because of a third parties ineptitude,

specifically “repair technicians” that do not know how to properly diagnose

possible defects of the individual components used in the Takamine electronic system.

AddictedToToneInc checks each component for possible electronic defect

when the new product is received from Takamine and

verifies its working condition once again before it is shipped.

~

Tested 100%

The item you are purchasing is inspected and tested before they are shipped to make absolutely sure everything is working 100%

Time is taken to check new product when it arrives from Takamine; electronic components pass through another more thorough audio and electronics test before being packaged and shipped.

The vintage preamps and used components sold by AddictedToToneInc pass through this same testing process.

Non electronic parts like Tuners, Nuts, Saddles are carefully inspected and tested; any part that requires assembly is assembled.

Many sellers do not possess a working knowledge of the Takamine equipment they are selling and simply send merchandise without examining the item being sold.

As a guitarist, artist and former touring musician I understand how important this equipment is to the individual purchasing it; most of my customers are casual players but for some of my clients the part being purchased is needed for work and making a livelihood - an extended downtime can make for some potentially hungry days!

My endeavors are not approached as a mere "numbers game" or how many boxes of product I can move, for me it is much more personal, most of my clients work very hard for their money; I appreciate and respect the fact they have chosen me to do business with. 

Takamine does a fabulous job with their electronics and there are very few incidents of manufacturer defect; very, very few incidents but it does happen.

It is much easier for me to check the product for the customer before it is sent rather than wasting time discovering a defective part after it has shipped; this is how I have always operated; it takes more of a commitment but my clients appreciate it – they know they can trust me to do the job right!

The testing process was originally started for the sake of my over-seas patrons but I quickly realized the value of it for all my clients!

Maybe I am just "old school" but this is the way I feel it should be done.

I have designed, created and employ special testing equipment for the Takamine preamps and electronic componentsbecause it is your reputation as well as mine at stake when you walk on stage!

AddictedToToneInc hosts a special Facebook page that specializes in the science and use of the Takamine technology exclusively for our Takamine clients.

Thank you,

William “Bill” Sutherland / AddictedToToneInc
