Staggered guitar tuners are of no
use - I put staggered tuners on one of my T-style
guitars and I quickly understand why staggered tuners are an
idea that never caught on. Here's why. Staggered tuners are
supposed to address the shallow break angle issue that motivates
most T-style and S-style guitars to have string trees on the B
and high-E strings (and sometimes the G string). Unfortunately,
staggered tuners don't help the break angle on these
strings, staggered tuners hurt the break angle on the
low-E, A and D strings. If your guitar needed string trees
before staggered tuners, it will need string trees after
staggered tuners. In fact, it may need more string trees because
now the low-E, A and D strings will have more shallow break
angles. Skip the staggered tuners. |
