Inserts for almost all guitar mechanics on the market
There are a handful of different shaft sizes among all guitar mechanic manufacturers. It is therefore important that the buttons have an exact insert to ensure an exact fit on the shaft of the respective guitar mechanics.
We at Guitar Monkey therefore offer a total of 3 different inserts in order to offer our buttons for almost all guitar mechanics on the market.
ATTENTION: Please measure the shaft of your guitar mechanics before purchasing to be on the safe side. If you are unsure, contact us and we will be happy to help you. Our inserts do not fit all guitar machine heads on the market, but only those listed below.

Save weight with our wooden buttons
The following table shows the different weights of the different Guitar Monkey buttons. It is clear that enormous weight savings are possible, especially thanks to the wooden buttons.
For example, if you replace the German Big Metal Buttons with German Big Wood Buttons (ebony or tamarind wood), the weight can be reduced by 48g from 228g to 180g per set of 6. This corresponds to a weight saving of over 21%!
