Howdy all. I have been looking for over a year for a certain style of fine tuner to use on my sitar and rudra veena. I see the more modern looking but smaller counterparts but not one like this configuration. As you can see by the image it is a "wing" design with a center screw. The string goes around the two wings and as you tighten or loosen the screw the pitch changes.
For the record, the thickest string diameters I am seeking these for are:
SWG 18 0.048" (1.2192mm)
SWG 22 0.028" (0.7112mm)
SWG 24 0.022" (0.5588mm)
Because of their thickness those common ones I keep seeing, (like the Wittner Suzuki styler violin tuner) are just too small.
Below is a photograph from my teacher's rudra veena showuing the fine tuner in place. Any help locating these would be wonderful.
