This is the same guy that got those two gorgeous boat anchor national receivers.This reminds me of when my daughter used to help from the time she was seven and now she can do this stuff as well.

Michael,
Thanks for sharing- it is interesting how each MFG does this differently- while realistic had an extra idler pulley beyond the tuning cap - the MR-74 had three inter dependent lines - one of which was the Power for the Dial indicator- which is illuminated....
Happy Listening

Hi Mike,
That was a great video! I already have a victim in mind as I never tried to restring a few vintage tuners hanging around. That guy is a great teacher and I hope there are some more videos of his work.....Mark Korda
