Kluson® Vintage-Style Tuning Machines

Kluson® has been manufacturing classic vintage tuners since 1925. Specialty Guitars has selected the most popular styles of Kluson®'s Traditional and Supreme 6-in-line tuners for your vintage-style guitar. These period correct tuning machines can replace the originals used on Fender® guitars of the 50s and 60s.

If your vintage guitar's original headstock has been modified for larger peghead holes, or you are using these tuners on a modern instrument, we also offer conversion bushings in both nickel and gold.
