a nice touch, that lends the bass

Machines
These slim, elegant individual Wilkinson®
WJB150 bass tuners are designed to offer
maximum tuning efficiency whilst their
conspicuous lack of overall unit weight
prevents a ‘neck heavy’
feel to modern, lighter weight instruments.
The sealed gear casings also prevent
dust and grime from interfering with
the tuners’ smooth and accurate
internal gear operation.
