Guitars D'Addario Auto-Trim Tuning Machines - Locking Tuners, Chrome

The Planet Waves 3 + 3 format Auto Trim Tuning Machines are precision tuners that automatically cut the excess string while changing strings, eliminating the need for string cutting tools and making string changes easy and fast. Featuring a patented Ned Steinberger design, these tuners cut excess string while the guitar is tuned, doing away with the requirement for extra string-cutting tools. The individual string clamps securely hold the string in the tuner, negating the need for multiple wraps around the tuning post. Excellent for aggressive tremolo use, the precision 18:1 gear ratio provides smooth, exact tuning, while virtually eliminating backlash and slippage.

Ordinarily, restringing is a tedious chore, requiring extra tools such as string cutters in order to get the job done. Planet Waves Auto-Trim tuners eliminate this need by automatically trimming the excess string from the tuning post as you increase the tension on the string. The Auto-Trim's rugged, die-cast housing and precision machined 18:1 bevel and worm gears assure in-tune performance after even the most aggressive playing or tremolo use. The tuners include a string clamp that securely hold the string in place, eliminating the need for multiple wraps around the tuning post. Simply insert the string, tighten the clamp, tune it up to the proper tension and allow the auto-trim feature to remove the excess string. Changing strings has never been easier.
