Peghead Bushing Reamers


Read 24 Reviews   |   Write a Review

Before you install press-fit tuner bushings, be sure they'll fit correctly, so your tuners will work efficiently. Too tight, and they can chip the peghead finish or crack the wood. Too loose, and they can rattle or fall out. Our custom reamers cut a clean, accurate counterbore for a professional job.

If you have a repair shop, you'll want the complete set on hand. Be ready for any tuning machine installation!

ideal complement

Now if that is easy to properly frame bushings, all the work worth your performance!

these reamers are great

For me, it is almost impossible to properly install tuner bushings without these.

Prep brings successful results

I have three of the sizes-covering the more common brands. On any pre-finished headstock, I highly recommend gentle masking tape over the tuner holes. Clearcoats of all kinds are fragile and taping at least helps avoid chipping. I also pre- bevel the edges of the tuner holes with a tapered reamer. "Slow-speed" is relative-I have found the speeds available in high-torque electric screwdrivers(mine is a Bosch, shaped like a small battery powered drill) to be best.

A precision tool

Used this once and it was perfect for the job. Easy to use and it gave me the exact diameter with a very smooth surface.

Easy

Cut perfect holes on an install of some banjo economy tuners. It helped bring a $30 pawn show wreck back to life!

Perfect size and fit

This reamer was a perfect fit. Much better than doing it by hand.
