Fustero Tuners
Up for consideration is a vintage set of Fustero classical
guitar tuners, recently pulled from a 1975 Ramirez 1a
6-string classical guitar. The tuners are in good working condition
after being removed in order to do a 10-string guitar conversion.
Since vintage Fuetero sets in good condition are relatively rare,
and the new Fustero sets sell for $300, this may be just the
ticket for a Ramirez guitar restoration project, or just
to install the original tunser set that came with your vintage
Ramirez 1a guitar.
Additional photos of the tuners in place on the guitar can be
seen
here, and hi resolution photos of the tuners are here.
SPECS:
*35 mm O.C.
* Gold Plated
* Classic Lyre design
* Original screws included
* Made in Spain
CONDITION
This Fustero tuner set is in very good condition with
just some of the gold plating wearing off between the tuning
buttons. The rollers seem to be in fairly good shape, with no
cracks or other major defects. The iviroid buttons are fully
intact with no cracks or broken chips. The gears seem to work
fine when installed and strung up on the guitar. There is a little
play when you turn them without any tension, but when installed
they worked perfectly fine for me, and I did not notice any problems
either in getting a smooth tuning movement on all 6 strings,
or any other kind of problem associated with old or worn tuners.
