Charles Yirka
I replaced tuners in an old Aria mr100 and a new Cordoba SP12 with these. Cordoba was almost locking up! Very happy with bearing/roller type. Not expensive!

I can't believe how amazing these tuners are. I have guitars with Landstorfer, Sloane, and high end Gotoh tuners. And I honestly like these Der Jung 103 more, they are that good, and they are one fifth the price!! I just purchased another set. I highly recommend these tuners, totally love them.
Joel Kubin
The Der Jung tuners offer superb value for the cost. I prefer these over some other brands costing twice as much Zebulon provides great customer service as well. I highly recommend.
Dan Kellaway
Very happy with the 103 DerJung Tuners. As a result I'm ordering some 106 now as the 18:1 ratio with the S4 geared rollers makes such a smooth and accurate tuner and I love the simplicity of the 106 plate. Thanks Zeb. Dan's Website
