      How does THAT work? It looks like half the mechanism is on top of the wood!

        It's a freakish design that somehow works just like a regular tuner, except with a higher gear ratio. Fewer turns to target, more precise control, etc.

        Last I heard Ed Roman bought the rights to LSR. However, I can't imagine him paying for the rights to anything, so I'd assume he somehow swindled them.

        Either way, go with Sperzel. Besides, the LSRs look like you've got !!!!!! going across the head

          If you go down to page 8 (tuners section) they describe it pretty thouroughly.

          Yeah the working design is weird, completely another story...The mechanism just locks the string and pulls it to tune it up. Not wrapping etc. Very fast restringing once you get familiar with.

          The design is ok with me. No problem with that (ok for an industrial looking guitar I'd like ). But it seems they couldn't find a factory to produce them. I read that in 2009 they were looking for someone to manufacture their products but still....

            Ed Roman has the rights for the US but doesn't do anything with it. Warwick/Framus have the European rights.

              Do Warwick/Framus sell them too? Or maybe they have stock(?).

                Sadly no they were selling them last year. But don't have them on the website now. Or I couldn't find them.
