Great bit of kit. I use drop d tuning on a few numbers - this plain saves either swapping guitars out or hoping you tune down and up just right between songs. or reordering a set etc. Carefully placed it does require another tiny screw hole for the retaining screw but this would be covered by the standard tuner if positioned just right if you were to swap it out later. (See photo) Need to set it up with new but stretched out E string and make sure there’s no catching on the nut bend or twang string to check it then just set tune it up standard first then dropped on the adjuster - I’ve been using it about a week not had an issue keeps tune well enough. I use fairly heavy strings (10 to 52s) play a lotta rock at heavier end of scale. Think I’m putting them one on my Les paul as well. Deffo worksRead full review

It's the only low E extender I am aware of, so it'll have to do. It is the third one I've owned since they first became available. The price I paid was acceptable. The seller is great, no complaints there. Is it enjoyable? Well, it gets the low E back up fro D to E fast enough so that I can fine tune it and keep playing, but the issue is, like some other Hipshot products, they didn't follow through with the design. In this instance, there is waaaay to much slop between the pitch adjusting screw and the threads in the plate, so the screw needs constant re-adjusting. This was true for the previous two units and is why I hate to recommend it. To recap: The tuning key is by GROVER and it is fine, but it is mounted to a Hipshot mount that is not very well made.

Drop D tuner works perfectly, easy installation. 2 screws to hold the plate, adjust the thumb screw for the Drop D position, and your'e done. Lever is quick and easy to use.

Easy installation and works great. A little bit of lubricant does help with functionality. The only thing that’s not 100 percent is that the tuner shaft is a bit too short (by the thickness of the back plate) to wrap the low e string easily. Overall I am happy though!😎🎶

I have a Hipshot D Tuner on every one of my guitars. Great on electrics, and indispensable for acoustic solo work.
