Suitable for almost all guitar machine heads on the market!

We at Guitar Monkey therefore offer a total of 3 different inserts so that our buttons can be used with almost everyone to offer mechanics on the market.

ATTENTION: Please measure the shaft of your mechanics before buying 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 tuners on the market, only those listed below.

Is it okay to use exotic woods?

Basically, all our wood comes from India and without exception from certified cultivation. The timber is grown in plantations and monitored and approved by the Indian State Forest Service.

What many people don't know is that there are several hundred types of ebony and rosewood all over the world. Unfortunately, many of the world's ebony and rosewood species, especially African ones, have been considered endangered for many years.

Therefore, instead of using the endangered Indian rosewood (Dalbergia Latifolia), we use the non-endangered tamarind wood (Tamarindus indica), also known as Indian dates. The second type of wood we use is East Indian ebony (Diospyros melanoxylon), which, unlike African ebony, is not considered critically endangered.

We also want to give something back to nature and therefore plant a tree in India for every Monkey Locks - Locking Tuners Set with wooden buttons sold.

ebony

East Indian Ebony (Diospyros Melanoxylon), also known as Coromandel or Kendu/Tendu, is not on the red list compared to many other ebony species.


East Indian ebony is a black, smooth and above all hard wood. As a result, it has an extremely elegant look and is therefore ideal as a button for guitar and bass mechanics.


By the way:

The leaves of this tree are also used as rolling paper for the Indian Beedi cigarettes.

Tamarindenholz

Tamarind wood (Tamarindus indica), also known as Indian dates, is a wood with properties similar to Indian rosewood. But tamarind wood is not on the red list, which is why we chose this excellent wood.


Tamarind wood has a beautiful, open-pored brown surface, which goes very well with guitars in Wood look fits and also very well with rosewood-like fretboards. Its properties make it very suitable as a material for mechanical buttons.


By the way:

Many of you are familiar with the sweet tamarind fruit of the tree especially as a tamarind sauce from Asian cuisine.
