i tried this without those tuners and lost an eye...
was about to try it , but i remembered it's quarantine and i don't have extra high strings xD
same ordeal
🙏
Tried it, broke strings twice.and now I have 4 spare packs of strings

As a banjo player who recently just bought some Keith tuners you paid a fair price and this is super cool!
for sure. the quality is amazing on these
Earl Scruggs could teach us a thing or two !
Oh hey you play with Modern Tradition absolutely love your stuff!
Is it though? Is it really a fair price? Or simply what everyone will pay?
@@DoctorSess you can get a decent acoustic guitar for that price.
Him : I bought 2 of these for 250 dollars
Me looking at my 40 dollar guitar: nevermind
😂😂
@CLEMY LiVES On my dream guitar (at least for now) is a $130 fender strat. To me, it just sounds you're bragging (I know you're not but it just feels like that to me).
Also, which country you from?
@CLEMY LiVES On Your $700 is like $130 to me. I mean, I have the same respect for $130 as you do for $700. If that makes any sense, I think you got my point.
@CLEMY LiVES On You're probably right. But I've been playing for 3 years now.
@CLEMY LiVES On If you show tour effort to the universe things come naturaly, I got a 70$ dollars guitar with solid top with a better sound and play than many taylors, takamines, fender etc. It may be luck or just how hard you are trying

@@Mattiaskrantz yeah, he's got a few videos, but stopped uploading about a year ago...
Hi taha we met again
@@tanishq5572 hehe!
They’re called Scruggs tuners. They’re not normal banjo tuners, you would still need to order them specially for your banjo. They’re named after the father of bluegrass banjo, Earl Scruggs because he used them in some famous songs like flint hill special. You basically set them to stop at the specific note you want and you can flick them back and forth easily.
So is it Earl or Keith?
Thank you for the explanation that was missing from this video. The video was just "Use these!... BYE!" There is no indication of what is special about these tuners other than being super expensive.
@shell wow, relax dude
@shell you're so out of it you didn't reply to anything he said 🤣

I’m gonna admit, I also thought until now that Alexander was using regular tuners... I really thought it was all done by muscle memory, but I coudln’t believe how accurate it was. Now it perfectly makes sense.
So glad you're back and covering the song that made me start with fingerstyle guitar! Always tried to learn passionflower but I realizes he had the tuners on the back and knew something was different
Yeah took me a veeery long time to realize. This song is also one of the reasons I started🙏
Glad you're back Mattias!
Thank you again🙏👌
@@Mattiaskrantz All this time I missed your content. The memez and the amazing playing! So glad you're back.
@@MrCywil why did he quit
Såw lol. Bra jobbat
The first generation of these tuners have been around since around 1957. Earl Scruggs had a hand in the design. In 1961, Bill Keith improved it and the Scruggs-Keith tuner was born. Waylon Jennings was using the tuner to drop D his Tele on the fly, since the early 70’s. Great product
It almost has a slide guitar sound. And that's really expensive for 2 tuning keys i don't think il be doing this.
They’re called “Keith” tuners fyi, they’re not regular banjo tuners
There are also schaller tuners which are usually bit cheaper
I know them as "Scruggs" tuners, named after Earl Scruggs, of bluegrass/banjo fame, and I've read/told since the 1970's that he invented them.
@@derekdowns6275 yeah Earl Scruggs invented a similar but less elegant predecessor; the mechanism is on the outside of the tuner rather than the inside, similar to the units hipshot makes for Bass. Best.
So is it Earl, or Keith? Or Schaller?
Great to see you back Mattias! I was watching your videos before I started my own fingerstyle guitar channel this year and people like you are the reason why I did start it so thank you! Grym är du! :)
Tack JG music😄👍 Lycka till!
You are the man dude! Great playing. I have been playing for 30 years, and 9 times out of 10, if it sounds hard to do, it is actually pretty easy with a little practice, or in your case, research. Thanks for the insight, great vid!
Alexandr Misko is the master of changing tunning while playing
That was a great video, no long talk, just an intro, play real demo before/after and we’re done :) I had no idea those tuners existed, and the price is understandable, really precise engineering! Thanks!
Thanks for answering the question on how the tuning was done in the middle of playing. Makes sense, was wondering myself so thank you.
Jon Gomm is not tricking us, 😂he’s found a way to achieve what he wanted
Using Banjo tuners!
Imagine having six of these on a FR bridge. Getting the tension just right for two separate tunings.
@Oh Wait Never seen him play on a guitar with a FR though. And I’m not saying we use the 6 for playing. Just solely for the purpose of let’s say going from standard to drop d tuning.
When I assembled my DIY HM strat, I opted for banjo tuners simply as I began on classical guitar (and still on it), and classical tuners face backwards... plus there is less bending of my wrist in unusual angles
Nice . That's why make me so much confused about chasing tune and arrange them again. I really thought he doing it without anything . Welcome back
good to see him back playing the guitar man also hope you recover your guitar skeelz that we all know and love
I try! Thanks a lot😄
Finally someone explained this to me!
You are my hero!
That google search at 0:10 tho ! XD
😂
They also have tuning heads that have specific ratios. iE quarter twist equals a half tone
How? Tension isn't linear, pitch isn't either and depends on string thickness..
Thanks for the knowledge. I too wondered how to play that song. But never actually attempted it
thank you for clearing that up!! Ive been playing guitar a long time and im able to play most things and when i saw people doing this I was like : "I guess im not as good as I thought I was"!
Makes a huge difference! Any tuners with a low ratio work perfect for this. Most banjo tuners are 1:1 to 4:1 and you could snag some for maybe 20 bucks. But 250 dollars probably got you very high quality tuners lol
Thanks MK ... 'been doing a thing with a tuner bridge *but* THIS is a worthy investment 👍
Dude, I'm really glad to see this. Thanks.
Every vid on this channel isn't clickbait just experimenting with instruments... wonderful
When he started by saying 'so' I thought it's another ad of Yousician 😂
This needs a Smarter Every Day episode to explain what the banjo tuners do and why.
@@splashgvng breaking down all the parts of a Keith tuner and explaining their function is very confusing for a layman, at least in the top 3 google results of “how do Keith tuners work”. I would say the “lazy” thing would be to frustratedly say “fuck it, who cares”. Rather than less-than-seriously asking a talented professional to explain and *show* in a video how it all works.
Great idea. Contact Destin. czcams.com/users/smartereveryday
Nah they need to explain the drop D lever first.
Sooooo... You weren't pro for all these damn years ? Bruh you're insanely good

Thanks Dessa🙏😄
@@Mattiaskrantz woah, thank you for the notice!
Thanks! I've been wondering as well.
It is too funny you’re playing Passionflower cuz that’s exactly what I was listening to before I started getting back into finger style and found your video. Crazy.
Who else came here expecting a tutorial 😭
Sry😅😅
Me :'(
Or even just an explanation
Was it not?
@@StokesMusicStudiosOnline
Gurrl, I-
I detuned a guitar for tommy Emmanuel, I watched him with my own 2 eyes retune that thing in like 6 seconds when he started playing a song. Definitely wasn’t the tuners. Maybe some guys use these tuners. But not all guys. So guys really do have a profound ear.
When you've been playing your whole life that's how it goes. Also, when you practice something a lot, you develop muscle memory. This technique can be learned without special tuners with lots of practice time.
I would imagine having perfect pitch makes this easy, but as has been mentioned, experience and training will give you relative pitch quite normally
@@chrisallen3388 tommy doesn’t have perfect pitch. He just has excellent relative pitch. In general there are very few people - professional musicians or otherwise. But yeah, perfect pitch would make most music easier
I can see how people might be able to tune up quickly but I don't think you can tune down as precisely. In my experience the strings sometimes stick a bit and won't drop into it's true pitch until you bend the string a little to unstick it. Hence the best practice advice that you should always tune up to pitch.
Check out Mary Spender's Melancholy Parade (I think the video is called "Stars and Stripes"), she's only tuning the one string, but she's doing so with normal tuners.
I’m so glad I find this out ,thanks
Hey mattias
Just found your channel
Glad you picked up the guitar again :)
Thanks Atimo! Hope you like it😄
You're my inspiration 🤩
Love you🙏❤️
Ah, yes, that original video puzzled me, especially the accuracy, But now I get it, these are like the Hipshot D-tuners for bass. I got one for my bass many years ago (also not cheap!). With one flick of a switch with the left thumb, it drops the lower E string to what is dialed in (Usually the D below), allowing to go from regular tuning to dropped D in a split second and very accurately. Clever stuff!
It's good to see you again. I picked up the guitar inspired by your 7000hrs of guitar video. Keep posting 😁
That’s awesome Rahul! 😄😄
Yay I am soo happy to see you back ❤️😍
Thanks Rohan😄😄
I am actually doing same tuning thing with regular machine heads on my guitar. It took me years of practice, though
That smile at the end knows it was success👍👍👍
Truly an inspiration, love it ❤
Thanks Jersey😄😄
Love to see your new videos bro 💕
Thank you😄😄
There's some quite famous banjo tunes that use this trick. Look up Flint Hill Special.
Thanks for this information. I had no idea that was how they did it. I just thought they were "that good". Makes me feel a little better, ha ha.
The before sounds like me when I go anywhere near a guitar 😁 it's great to see a real musician at work 👍
Wow and they make the recording and mic sound better too!
Now that was very helpful 😅I used do this too and had such terrible mistakes of tuning !
😂😂
Tnx for sharing the knowlsge
Even with the banjo running knobs, no one is close to the skill level of Jon. Both hands are doing 3 different things at any given time and he's singing simultaneously
Wait what? It’s special tuners? You opened my eyes man, thanks :)
Yes it is😄
That's a nice tutorial man!
Thanks bro🙏
You are back!! Big fan
Yes! Thank you😄😄
so this is what pro guitarists sound like, finally. thanks!
Mattias feels like a really kind yet cool older brother
Passionflower is one of my favorite songs!
Thank you mr. Krantz
i didnt watch the original video so i didnt know about this until know (i honestly dont watch too many acoustic guitar videos), but damn that sounds awesome
Never saw these used on guitar but Earl invented the prototype. (Scruggs)
Yes, and the early addition of his instruction book shows how to make them. The are basically cams, while Keith pegs rely on differeing rotary mechanisms inside the tuners themselves. Earl switched to Keith pegs pretty much as soon as the came out. Before he made the cams, Earl did indeed retune by ear on songs like Flint Hill Special. According to Tony Trischka there is a live early (haha) recoding in which he misses the tuning and aviods the affected string for the rest of his break. Chet used them on guitar a bit. Adrian Legg uses them still, I think.
You're back!! ❤️❤️
🙏😍
oh lol, ive always used regular tuners with a low ratio, this is helpful
Same thing really?
@@icebergslim1872 no... it realize now there was a much easier way to do it, but now that i have been using the low ratio normal tuners for so long, i am very familiar with them so im fine
Sounds awesome
It's worth noting that while this kind of tuning peg with stops for set pitch change has existed for about 60 years, banjo players used to do this with regular tuning pegs prior to their invention so if you look up old videos of Earl Scruggs playing Flint Hill Special for example, he's doing this with regular tuners. But it was difficult to do so that's why the mechanical solution came about. It's still much easier to do this with banjo tuners than guitar tuners though because guitar tuners typically have a gear ratio of like 12:1 or 16:1 or whatever whereas as banjos have a ratio of 4:1 so with a guitar it takes a very substantial turn to change a string one step but with a banjo it takes significantly less motion so it's fairly reasonable to do.
I'm not sure if there are hipshot tuners for acoustic, but that is another possibility. Don't forget about the b-bender contraption use in older electrics (maybe still in some newer ones, I don't know.) I do like the Keith-scruggs tuners option for achieving fast alternate tunings. Perhaps too costly, but it would be fun.
I remember when I first found this out, it was like finding out the pole spins. Heartbreaking.
Love your videos buddy
Thanks buddy😄
Those brushed tuners are really nice.
Not really into the others.

Hope you and your family is safe and healthy. 😁
I have basically the bass version of this to just go into drop d. So handy.
Yeah it’s very nice for changing tuners
You could use the tuners as a makeshift b-bender!
Worth every pfennig.
Thank you Mattias, very cool
Thank you, very cool🙏
Oh I see, I never wanted to try that anyways, not my style and honestly Im probably not at that skill level but thanks for the insight.
If I were going to spend that much money I would buy that automatic tuning system. It's so good you have to tell it not to auto correct the strings if you want to bend them.
The Reason they are in sets of two is because they were invited for playing certain songs on banjo like flint hill special or foggy mountain chimes. the kind he used are called Keith tuners there’s also cheeta-keys but the are designed to fit around a banjo head stock they squeeze the strings and when you turn the key the part squeezing the sting loosens changing the banjos tuning from G to D.
Very interesting - I'd not seen these before, but they work on the same principle as Earl's original cam style tuners, cleverly avioding the need to drill for the extra keys.
Reminds me of the B-benders from early 70's
I've got a set of drop tuners fitted to my piccolo bass. I get the same effect for $150.

Anyone who even attempts to play passionflower is a pro.
First person to use these Keith tuners on guitar was Chet Atkins (I believe he used 3). I tried it in the 70s but it was completely beyond me until I took up banjo (I just used them to change between open tunings. Adrian Legg does some demonstrations of these techniques, having been told by my housemate, again in the 70s. $250 is a good price for a pair of genuine Keith tuners. Schaller do a version at $75 but they simply are neither as accurate nor as durable as Keiths IMO. The insides of the tuners look like old fashioned watch mechanisms and are extremely delicate (I took one of my Schallers apart after it failed), so both these aspects are very important. Here in the UK the pricing would be a straight £ for $ substitute, or maybe more with carriage and tax.
Oh what you need are drop tuners, they allow you to do just that incredibly accurately
Legend come back on youtube)
😄😄
Lowden have a Jon Gomm signature guitar and that has two banjo tuners pre-installed. (I know not everyone can afford a Lowden and especially not a signature model.)
My guitar: don't even think about it!
thank you
What baton rouge guitar model is this? Looks amazing!
Well I have just gone back to the Passionflower video because I love that song and wow you're right, you can see the two tuners are different on his guitar. Also, I know you are an amazing musician so I feel I am probably wrong but it sounds like the last note is played too soon and the beat is missed afterwards, not sure if that makes sense writing it out.
