Parts & Accessories
If you are changing the tuning machines on your guitar, especially a Cordoba guitar, or rejuvenating an old instrument, then here are parts and accessories for Der Jung Tuners.
Rosewood Buttons
These rosewood buttons, sold in sets of six, are a classy upgrade to any of the Der Jung sets, but they work best on the premium, 18:1 ratio sets such as the 101, 102, 103, 200 306 and 526 models. Counter-sinking of the screw head will be recommended for adding these buttons to the sets that fasten the buttons with phillips head screw.
S4 Rollers
These S4 rollers have a bearing on the tip that will be a great upgrade to any of Der Jung's sets. The bearing is 13/32 inches or 10.2mm - slightly larger than the standard 10mm hole. The rollers are sold in sets of 6 and come with 6 extra spring washers to compensate for variations or inconsistencies in plate thickness.
Replacement Gears
These replacement gears are sold individually for tuners that have experienced excessive ware or complete failure of their gear(s). Choose between 14:1 and 18:1 by counting the teeth on your original gear. Be sure to inspect the machine and headstock for conditions that could lead to more gear misalignment and failures.
Button Wrench
Here is a 5mm hex socket for servicing the buttons that are fastened with the decorative, ball tips screw found on the DJ102, 103, 306 & 106. The performance and reliability of these tuners depends upon this screw being tight enough to maintain the position of the worm in relation to the gear. So buy it and keep it on hand.
Ebony Buttons
These ebony buttons, sold in sets of six, make an elegant upgrade for any Der Jung tuning machine, but they pair best with the premium 18:1 ratio sets such as models 101, 102, 103, 200, 306, and 526. Counter-sinking the screw head is advised when using Phillips-head screws.
P6B Buttons
This button model comes on the Cordoba 305GK and serves as a proper replacement for that set or any Der Jung sets where you prefer it. If installing on a set with the decorative ball-end hex screw, check that box and we’ll include the matching washer needed for proper fit.
Ivoroid Buttons
This ivoroid button is designed for use with a Phillips-head button screw, as the top of the button is recessed to fit. Each button features a unique pattern, giving it a realistic ivory look, and the warm cream color adds a natural, elegant appearance to any set.
Pearloid Buttons
This pearloid button is designed for use with a Phillips-head button screw, as the top of the button is recessed to fit. Each button features a unique pattern, giving it a realistic ivory look, and the warm cream color adds a natural, elegant appearance to any set.
Gear Screw
This black Phillips head screw threads into the string roller, securing the gear and spring washers to the roller on the opposite side of the mounting plate. Can be lost or stripped during tightening. Sold individually for easy replacement.
Spring Washers
These spring washers act as spacers beneath gears, keeping a strong union between gear, plate, and roller. This union is vital for proper gear-to-worm alignment. Sold in sets of 6 to ensure consistent performance and fit.
Phillips Button Screw
This phillips head button screw is available in both gold and black finish. These screws are used on buttons, a.k.a. knobs, that are seated such that the heads of these screws can sit beneath the top of their button.
Hex Button Screw
This hex head button screw fits the provided 5mm wrench. Ideal for replacing stripped or damaged screws from repairs. Available in black nickel and gold finishes, with antique brass coming soon. Reliable replacements for your hardware needs.
Inspiro Strings
I have tested some of these string for the manufacturer for the past two years and have been very impressed with the sound that they are acheiving with their proprietory bass string technology. Truly there are still new frontiers in the making of guitar strings and we can never take for granted how that influences the making of our guitars and our techniques in playing them. Paired with normal tension carbon trebles, these "Inspiro" strings deserve test drive on your guitar.
Oasis Humidifier
This is my "go-to" humidifier that I provide with all of my new guitars when shipping them to their new homes. Fill them with distilled water and the chrystals inside will retain moisture and humidify your instrument while in the case. Given that moisture molecules travel 1,400 miles per hour and are lighter than the air we breathe, it's best to just use a humidifier and not kid yourself into thinking your case is going to keep your guitar from equilibrating with an excessively dry climate.
Oasis Clip-on Tuner
Here is an affordable and effective clip-on tuner for your guitar that has a full color LCD display. Battery and directions are included.
- Power: 3V2032 cell battery
- Tuning Range: B0-B7
- A-4 calibration: 440hz
- Weight: 30g
