Mechanical pegs represent a revolution is lute tuning. Each peg shaft is constructed with a planetary-gear mechanism that allows very fine tuning of the string. The gear has a 4:1 ratio which means that the peg head needs to be turned four times for the shaft to complete one revolution around. The peg also has a break mechanism so the string will tension not turn the peg and each has variable friction so you can push the peg into the peg box to increase the resistance or pull it out to decrease the resistance.

We are offering lute pegs, which are tuning pegs used for holding a string into the pegbox, present in various stringed instruments. We make this from different wood such as Ebony, and rosewood. Shell, beads, rings, metal or plastic inlays are used for decorating some of the lute pegs.
These pegs are exactly the same weight as an ebony peg, so they don’t make the instrument heavy and unbalanced and they fit into the same holes as a standard lute peg. You can only tell the difference between the mechanical peg and a friction peg if you look very closely.Rosewood - 3.7g
