Wittner Finetune Viola Peg – 4/4, Thick (9.2mm)

Innovative Pegs for Classical Instruments

Wittner’s ergonomic and eco-friendly Finetune pegs represent a big payoff, low-cost upgrade for stringed instruments such as violin, cello, and viola. These innovative pegs practically eliminate tuning hassle and strain on the body, with the added benefit of preserving your instrument’s peg box for reduced future maintenance costs. Traditional tuners not only put significant strain on players’ wrists and arms, but they also rarely deliver intended results when stage pressure peaks. Such tuners require 2-point pressure from the wrist that pivots and twists with pressure at the same time, a demanding motion that often negatively impacts long-term wrist health and even costs some performers their ability to play. Finetune innovation changes that. Wittner engineers crafted a design with gears built directly into the peg’s head. With their closed non-slip design and efficient 8.5 to 1 ratio, Finetune pegs deliver precise, quick, gear-assisted tuning without sticky gears or hand slips. Sweetwater players were quick to note how these pegs ward off or eliminate wrist strain to protect your greatest asset: your hands. Moreover, Finetune Pegs are a worthwhile investment for any older instrument with a soft wood peg box. Once installed, the peg shaft is stable, eliminating the persistent routine wear of a conventional peg, preserving your instrument’s value, and eradicating the need for costly rebushing repairs down the line.
