Hauser Style Tuners
Hauser Style Tuners
The Hauser tuner style is recognized by the polished scalloped edges and as with all the other ‘tuner styles’, can be made and customised to your liking. The plate shape is adapted from tuners used on original Hauser guitars.
The image shown above has the engraved design number L302 and is made in Brass. It is fitted with black horn buttons and black string rollers.
The Hauser tuners can have the standard polished chamfer like the above set or can have extra decorative ‘nicks and scallops’ around the shape of the plate.
For more information on the above set:
Plate material and finish
The three materials available are brass, nickel silver (German silver) and for that extra special set, sterling silver.
The surface of the brass plates have a satin finish. Nickel silver can be satin or with a full polish. Sterling silver usually always has a full polish. We use Argentium sterling silver which has a higher silver content and never loses its shine even if the surface lacquer is removed. Nickel silver will never tarnish and brass plates and polished parts are coated with hard nano-ceramic clear coating.
We can also blacken (or colour) the plates or engraving to enhance the engraved design.
Buttons & string rollers
Any of the button shapes or materials can be used for these tuners.
String rollers for slotted head or solid head instruments are available.
Dimensions
Tuners can be made with any number of mechanisms per plate. We can make sets with fully customised dimensions, plate length, wood-screw hole positions, string roller spacing and number of mechanisms.
The standard plate dimensions for Hauser Style tuners are:
