Kluson6-In-Line Or Single Vintage Diecast Series Firebird Metal Keystone Tuning Machines Nickel
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Made as a Firebird replacement, these Kluson vintage die-cast metal keystone tuners follow the original Firebird mounting pattern and 12:1 ratio. The 5/16-inch string posts are specified to accommodate modern string gauges, while the metal housings retain the distinctive Firebird-style keystone form. They install in the original tuner mounting holes without modification, making them suited to a Firebird refresh where the original layout is being retained.
Strong match
Who this is for

- Firebird setups using modern string gauges and requiring 5/16-inch string posts.
