Dear Horst:
I LOVE these pegs. They are beautiful, sensual to the touch and turn marvelously.
I think also the WITTNER tailpiece "Classic" has freed up the resonance of the cello as well.
So, I am very happy .. Lynn

Dear Horst:
"The WITTNER gear pegs are a must have for any student or professional string player. Nowadays, the audience expects a performance to be uninterrupted by incessant tuning. These pegs turn exactly the same in humid and dry climates. Some professionals with very expensive instruments are changing to these pegs to preserve the original scroll and the holes. The fact is nothing is moving up in the scroll against wood. Thereby, the scroll is aged as little as it would be with no playing at all. I estimate that for a student with pegs fitted not as perfectly as on top professional instruments, the WITTNER fine-tuning pegs can save ten minutes in tuning time at the beginning of a half hour lesson. I wish that these pegs were around when I was young."

As a complement to the WITTNER fine-tuning pegs, I recommend the WITTNER tailpiece "Classic" above all others.
"For the maximum resonance of any stringed instrument the lightness of the tailpiece and it's flexibility to vibrate is paramount, that's why I use the WITTNER tailpiece in all my cellos."
