Inserts for almost all guitar machine heads on the market

Among all guitar machine heads there are a handful of different shaft sizes. 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.

Weight comparison

Save weight with our wooden buttons

The following table shows the different weights of the different Guitar Monkey buttons. It becomes clear that an enormous weight saving is possible, especially with the wooden buttons.

If, for example, the German Big Metal Buttons are replaced by German Big Wood Buttons (ebony or tamarind wood), the weight can be reduced from 228g by 48g to 180g Reduce per set of 6. That corresponds to a weight saving of over 21%!
