Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Built for right-handed 4-string basses with a 4-in-line headstock, these Ratio machine heads use string-specific gear ratios so each tuner responds consistently to the same adjustment. In practical tuning, a half turn moves each string by a semitone. The double-envelope gearing and hardened steel gears are designed for smooth, precise operation, while the chrome Y-style buttons give the set its finished appearance.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Replacing tuners on a right-handed 4-string bass with a 4-in-line headstock.
  • Players who want the same tuning adjustment to produce a consistent result across all four strings.

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Basses that are not right-handed, do not use four strings, or lack a 4-in-line tuner layout.
