Waverly Anniversary String Winder - Dark Tortoiseshell

Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne

The Waverly Anniversary String Winder in Dark Tortoiseshell is a premium tool crafted to mark 100 years of Waverly excellence. Its tapered handle is made from Galalith, a dense, casein-based material that mimics the look of genuine tortoiseshell, so each winder carries its own unique colouring and pattern. Paired with a polished brass shaft, the winder turns smoothly and feels like a genuine upgrade over a basic tool.

This handcrafted winder is built with the same meticulous care Waverly puts into its renowned tuning machines. Balanced in hand and compatible with both small and large tuning buttons, it is ideal for players who want their maintenance gear to match the quality of their instrument, an heirloom-quality companion for a lifetime of string changes.
