That is the same impression I got, matt. On very simple instruments you often see these types of screws that are meant to hold the tension of the string, and typically they cannot support more than 10 lb at most
Anything beyond that starts to dig into the plastic
Those appear to be ukulele tuners. I tried them once, I thought they worked poorly and never used them again as they do not work well with steel strings. as far as I could tell, you tighten the screws and then tune the string and hope the tuner holds.
Hi kids just trying to increase my education here I noticed a pair of tuning pegs. I was wondering what they are called and what are the little adjustment screws on the end for?Are you supposed to loosen the screw and then tune the string and then tighten the screw back down tight, I don't get it. Seems like an awful lot of work if that's the case. Hope the photo was attached
