Re: Has anyone switched to Waverly 21:1 tuners?
I decided to switch out the 16:1 ratio Waverly tuners on my Collings OM1 mc. The 16:1 ratio worked fine but since I play in various tunings I find the added precision a plus.
Very easy, direct replacement.

Re: Relief or no relief? What do you think?
Good input Frank. I rarely ever measure the height of the strings off the frets at the nut or the relief. If it feels right it is. I do measure the action at the twelfth once it's where it feels right. Interesting and troubling at the same time is that when I have my set-up where I like it, the meas...

Relief or no relief? What do you think?
I know there are different schools of thought on the subject and many variables that come into play, but here's the question. Can lower action and better playability be achieved with relief or a totally flat neck? In addition, still considering a low action at the 12th fret, how does, if indeed it d...

Re: Strings
I've read a lot of good reviews on the Santa Cruz strings. What do you like about them over standard PB strings?

Re: Waverly tuner alternatives for OM1?
I'm pretty sure you can't remove the buttons. I don't see a screw on the tuners.

Re: Has anyone switched to Waverly 21:1 tuners?
Some good points for sure. I do like the oval buttons a bit better and if the 21:1 ratios offered that option in ebony it would make it more plausible I suppose.

Has anyone switched to Waverly 21:1 tuners?
My OM1 has Waverly tuners with 16:1 ratio. Thinking about switching to the 21:1 version and wondering if anyone has tried them.
If so, what'd you think?
The obvious is better precision but are they smoother overall as well?
