Rodgers Self-aligning Bearing Bushes
Rodgers Tuning Machines has offered optional string rollers with self-aligning bearing bushes for the last nine years. The Rodgers self-aligning bearing bushes were designed by Rodgers to deliver smooth, clean operation regardless of the tightness of headstock roller holes. Imprecise roller holes often result when (1) they have been improperly drilled, (2) the wood surrounding the roller holes has shrunk or (3) some guitar finish has gotten inside the holes. The Rodgers' self-aligning string rollers have outboard bearing bushes that spin freely. As a result, these bearing bushes prevent string rollers from binding in imperfect holes. Rodgers self-aligning bearing bushes are available for a modest additional fee on all Rodgers classical style machine heads.
Guitars International is honored to be the North American dealer for Rodgers precision machine heads.
