I was considering a number of upgrades to my mandolin. I was wondering what the advantage of better tuners is? Do they not slip out of tune? Are they smoother when tuning? When I tune my mandolin, it seems there I sometimes have to detune a string drastically to get it to 'move' and then I can tune up to the proper point, subtle adjustments don't always work it seems. I had a new nut put in place when the instrument was set up. Perhaps the slots aren't quite cut right.
My mandolin is a Michael Kelly mandolin that I've had for about 2.5 years, or is it 3.5? I bought it prior to them being sold in stores. I hear they now have Grover tuners. Does anyone know what they were before that?
Any info would be appreciated.
I can't afford WAverly's and am not looking at doubling the cost of my instrument! Wondering what is affordable....
