All Sceptre electric guitars use the DJ234 model tuners. They have a diecast housing with sealed lubrication for smooth operation and long life. The 1:14 gear ratio provides fast and accurate tuning. I chose the D5 zinc button because it is small and solid for the 6-in-a-line headstock configuration. Another feature I like is that they do not need a mounting screw to maintain a solid positioning. Two small nibs on the housing fit in holes routed into the back of the headstock by our CNC machine. It’s rock solid.

For the Sceptre bass guitars I chose the DJ230 tuners. These have a large tuning gear with a 1:20 ratio which gives accurate tuning with less strain on the tuner – and your hand. The tuner posts are 14mm in diameter and will accept any gauge string you chose to play. Another important consideration is that these tuners are light – only 68 gr/piece. A normal large sized vintage style tuner is almost 100 gr/pc making the headstock noticeably heavier.
