Very nice. Where do you get those tuners? I can't find any with that vintage look that are priced under $20.

ebay.about $10 for 6

with these cheap tuners,you may get the odd one that will round off the gear wheel.

in other words the round gear just shear off. I've had 3 out of about 24 so far.

they are ok on light to medium strings ,on medium no more than 5th string  ( 6th E) 

these were intended for classical guitars so that should give some idea of the strength.

I think these are ok and I don't think they are poorly made .
