Once inserted into the peg box, the shaft of the Fine Tune peg remains firmly locked in position, while only the button and the middle section of the shaft with gears rotate. These pegs have an internal gear ratio of 8.5:1, which allows for accurate tuning. The gear mechanism is also self-inhibiting, meaning it cannot slip back once turned.
