From our friends at Hipshot:
Is your vintage tone machine drifting out of tune in the middle of the set? The Hipshot® Vintage Tuner Upgrade Kit is a risk-free step toward giving you consistent results from your beloved guitar. The Grip-Lock™ system securely clamps the string ends so that your pitch remains right where you set it.
