Most players will admit that tuning with traditional friction pegs leaves considerable room for improvement. Friction pegs slip or stick depending on humidity and temperature. String adjusters help with fine tuning, but add mass and erode tonal vibrance. A lasting solution to these problems begins with innovation with an eye towards tradition.

The use of a tuning peg is not new. The use of a geared mechanism is not new. Combine the two and you have something revolutionary. The Perfection Planetary Peg combines synthetic material with geared technology to create a peg which is resistant to humidity and temperature; holding its string to create consistent tuning and allow for increased playing time, not tuning time.
