Instructions
Ultra-smooth operation • Precise tuning • Long life • Classic beauty

Waverly's renowned design eliminates looseness in the gears, for maximum tuning efficiency. The precision-machined stainless steel worm gears, bronze alloy string post gears and 16:1 gear ratio assure smooth, accurate tuning. Each handsome engraved baseplate is computer-machined from a single brass billet, combining the ideal weight with unwavering stability. Classic satin silver or gold plating, and beautiful solid pearl, ebony or grained ivoroid knobs will enhance a fine A-style mandolin. Waverly tuners are a statement of quality!

Each set includes:
• Pair of 4-left, 4-right tuning machines
• Knurled press-fit brass peghead bushings
• Mounting screws

Gear ratio 16:1
Standard string post spacing 29/32" (23mm)
Required peghole diameter 21/64" (8.3mm)

Important: To be sure these tuners fit your mandolin, compare your existing tuner dimensions and peghole spacing to our specs before ordering. Waverly tuners will not fit Gibson A-style mandolins made before 1925. Golden Age Restoration A-style Tuners are available specifically for retrofitting these early mandolins that have wider (.931") string post spacing.

Waverly tuners are made in Bozeman, Montana USA.

Peghead Bushing Reamer
For Waverly mandolin tuning machines

Get the right fit! This slow-speed bushing reamer has a 1/4" pilot and 11/32" shank. Two 1" flutes cut a .328"-diameter counterbore for Waverly press-fit peghead bushings.

TIP: Plate-mounted tuners can't work efficiently if the pegholes are improperly drilled. This is a common cause of tuning difficulties, regardless of brand. Our Mandolin Peghead Drill Jig ensures precise 29/32" spacing for accurate alignment.



To be sure these tuners fit your instrument, compare your existing machines and peghole dimensions to our listed See specs to help determine the best replacement.
