Performing artists stay in tune with Waverly:
“The best tuners in the world.” — Chris Thile
“They have changed my life.” — Sam Bush
“The frequent need for retuning during a show is gone.” — Ronnie McCoury

Ultra-smooth operation, precise, reliable tuning, long life and classic beauty.

Each handsome engraved baseplate is now computer-machined from a single brass billet, for lighter weight with unwavering stability. Satin gold or silver plating, plus beautiful solid mother-of-pearl knobs will enhance your F-style mandolin.

Choose from two string post spacings.
Standard spacing measures 29/32" (.906") between each string post.
Early 1920s Loar has .931" string post spacing.
String post diameter: .236"

Set includes a pair of 4L/4R tuning machines, mounting screws and knurled press-fit brass peghead bushings. Mounting screws included.

Handmade 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.

Our mandolin peghead drill jig correctly aligns pegholes for efficient tuner operation.

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

I love Waverly tuners. The keys move with ease and hold strong, two important qualities we must have to perform night after night. I have Waverly tuners on all my mandolins. I wouldn't want to use anything else. They are the best!
