Many thanks to all our customers who have patiently been waiting on backordered tuners. We are receiving our new inventory from the machine shop early next week and will be filling orders immediately when it arrives. Thanks to all for your patience as our supply chain gets back to normal!

Happy Birthday to our good friend Adrian Legg! One of the first to explore Keith tuners on acoustic guitar, Adrian went straight into the deep end with a full set of SIX! As well as being a truly world-class guitarist, Adrian is also a master storyteller - if you ever have a chance to see his show, don't miss it! Here's an old clip of him giving his tuners a good workout:

Most of our clients are banjo players, but our tuners also work great on guitar! Here to prove the point - the brilliant Russian acoustic guitarist Alexandr Misko with his solo arrangement of a pop classic, "Careless Whisper". Alex uses a full set of SIX Keith D-tuners on his custom acoustic guitar!!

Here's a great little video of Rino Silden playing "America the Beautiful". Rino is one of our favorite European banjo players. Sure appreciate his words in the caption too!

Let me honor USA for that we norwegians still speaks norwegian rather then german.

IBMA day 1 was a blast! It's been great seeing old friends and making new ones. Here's a picture of way too many banjo players in one place- Rex McGee, Gabe Hirschfeld, Bennett Sullivan, and yours truly.
