Schaller Kluson Tuners??

[Fenderbaum]

I thought i had found and uncovered all info about the Kluson vintage style tuners, past and present manufacturers.

These showed up on the used market for $35 and i bought them (as pictured) out of surprise and curiosity. Will get them next week.
Seller say they are indeed Schaller.

By the looks of the packaging, they look old.. 80´s maybe.

Anyone know if Schaller ever made these at one point?? (with round buttons)

I think they still do.

I think they still do.

Nothing on their site. Still make them for Gibsons tho..

Yeah I just looked and couldn't find any. Thought I saw them a couple of years ago when looking for vintage fender style for a buddy.I was sure I saw some and they were the most expensive ones so got him Fenders.

Sent Schaller an Email. See what they say if they respond.

These are listed for sale on Schaller's website in gold & nickel, 6 on a side or 3+3

This is on Reverb. I'm sure you could find out more in just a few minutes on a search engine.


Doesn't seem so far-fetched for those to be genuine. They still sell that design.

I'm glad I saw this. I know where to order the set of nickel 3+3's I want to get when it's time.

The Gibson tuners i know are made.
But i have never seen Kluson style for Fender by them.

Got an email from Schaller.
He says the package and everything is original. And they did indeed make them a while ago.

The package looks very 1980s.

Nice find! Good reliable German engineering.

They stopped production in 2000.
Says it can be 80s too.
