This is a set of 12 ebony lute pegs.

  • Overall Length - 98.50mm
  • Shaft Length - 76.50mm
  • Grip Width - 16.50mm
  • Diameter at Collar - 8mm
  • Diameter at End - 6mm

These pegs are mostly handmade and have a taper of roughly 30:1 starting at the collar for about half the length, at which point the taper becomes less to the end. The shaft will need to be carefully shaped a little to be fully round and fit your particular reamer.

Dimensions are approximate and may vary slightly from one peg to another. These pegs are priced as a set and are unable to be split.

*Please note that sale pegs are not returnable.*

Hand-made in the USA by Gamut Music, Inc., a leader in the revival of early music strings and instruments. Gut strings are not intended to be used with fine tuners or string adjusters, and those devices should be removed before installing the gut string on the instrument.

All Gamut Academie strings (pure gut and gut/metal-wound) are made with beef serosa unless they specifically say "Sheep Gut." All pure gut Tricolore violin and viola strings are made with sheep gut; gut/metal-wound Tricolore and all Red Diamond strings are made with beef serosa.

Gamut gut string gauges are approximate (≈) diameter. Meaning, that while a ≈0.60mm string is polished in the workshop to a diameter of 0.60mm, changes in ambient humidity, temperature, shipping, and storage conditions can cause to string to expand or contract slightly.

Gimped gut strings and custom gauged equal tension strings are gauged with the equivalent-gauge (=) system. This means that the gauge listed, such as =1.50mm, indicates that the string is approximately equal in weight to a plain gut string of that diameter. Of course, because the wire is much heavier than gut, the string will be much thinner than a plain gut string.
