Fender American Series Stratocaster Guitar Tuners with Gold Hardware Set of 6 Gold

Product Information

However, after analysing the video footage – and applying a little mathematics relating to the car’s gearing and final drive ratio – internet mathematicians soon debunked the claims, saying the true top speed of the Tuatara was around 250mph. Such a feat requires an immensely powerful engine – which the Tuatara has. It’s a 5.9-litre V8 with two turbochargers and a flat-plane crank, which pushes out 1,750bhp and 1,735Nm of torque. And, unlike most über-powerful hypercars, such as the Bugatti Chiron or the Pininfarina Battista, the Tuatara also does without four-wheel-drive. All of its power is sent to the rear wheels only via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. So, the American Special slots in under the long-running American Standard range - for many, Fender's staple Tele. The more recent, matt-finished Highway One series also fills a spot in the market between the more affordable Mexican-made guitars and the upmarket American Standard and Vintage series, but lots of people want their guitars shiny, not matt. Vintage-style tuners typically have a press-in bushing that hold the tuning machine in place. If you’re changing from modern tuners to vintage-style, then you will likely need a conversion kit as the holes will be too big. A lot of vintage-style tuning machines come with matching bushings but if yours don’t, you can find plenty of choice to match here.

We’re sure you appreciate the value of a tuner if you’re a musician. Because it can represent a variety of itches, users will be able to tune the guitar, eliminating the guesswork and ensuring the instrument produces a clear and pure tone. Shelby American's relationship with Ford blossomed into multiple vehicles. Timeless icons include the LeMans winning Ford GT40, the Shelby GT500, and the one-of-one Shelby GT500 Super Snake. The Shelby American tuning shop went on to work with Chrysler and Dodge, building stunning high-performance vehicles that stand the test of time.The American Specials' colour range is very limited albeit tasteful, with the Tele available only in three-tone sunburst and Olympic white. Our Tele is sunburst and features the thin polyurethane finish that, unlike the matt look of the Highway One models, emanates a classy and upmarket vibe. In fact, at first, it's not easy to see where - and indeed if - any corners may have been cut.

Many issues can impact tuning durability and intonation on guitars, such as badly cut nuts, loose strings, and dead notes, all of which indicate that the instrument has not been properly set up.The gearing mechanism inside the tuner is completely sealed and permanently lubricated with Gotoh’s ‘Lubri-Coat’ technology. This is a coating applied to the worm gear and spur gear wheel to ensure a smooth action that also increases the durability to give you reliable performance time after time. Maybe a brand new OEM clutch will be ok at stage 1 as I think mines the original at 116k, but I can't see it holding stage3+ as its quoted over 450ft/lbs, that's a fair bit more than my gt30'd 9k produced (425) A major plus point with JZW is once you've bought the first map all others are free, even if you go to stage 3+ in a few months then stage 5 next year. You pay once and that's it. I looked at Vtuner & Maptun but the extra expense of another map put me off especially as I'd probably be getting another 3 or 4 maps as I go up the stages. I'm concerned with torque and clutches. There does not seem to be a definitive best clutch for more torque. The Americans don't seem to even mention clutches even with bonkers Torque...... My standard clutch didn't hold 520nm very successfully with a previous tune and I know someone else on here can't hold his 550 either - so unless it's new and you change them like your pants a standard clutch would only seem viable for 480nm for longevity? ( also need DMF when do clutch change?)

If your guitar has staggered-height tuners, or you’re planning to install some, that’s cool. Go for it and see what happens. It might be absolutely fine for you. Do keep an eye out for any change in tone or sustain on the open string; any buzzes or rattles on the open string; and —definitely— any poppin’ strings while bending. You get a better angle over the nut, and in certain situations, they reduce the need for a string tree, which is another source of friction that might impact tuning. Because of the high-quality tuning that it provides, the staggered tuners may be utilized with professional guitars. The advantage of staggered tuners is that they do not conflict with vibratos or tree hold-downs.

I know a lot of guys think the numbers are exaggerated, and without dyno'ing mine to get the proof they may well be right (who am I to say their wrong, the actual numbers could be well off the quoted figures) But from my butt dyno, the missis screaming at me to slow down everytime I take her out, and comparing this to my old 9000 with the various stages I took that thing through, I'd be very surprised if my dyno results weren't close to the quoted numbers. Jerod Shelby soon released a statement explaining that there had been a mix-up between the video and GPS data when the clip was edited together – and, to remedy the issue, the company will rerun the attempt in “the very near future.” I know the 9-5 tunes pretty well and to be honest each 'stage' from whoever is a much of a muchness. There was a little scope for deepening the slot so I took a little down. I didn’t have much hope and I was right. Still had a popping string.
