Hi All,
While on the subject of those pesky pegs I thought I might pass on some
ideas about tuning:
1. Think about the tension on the string between the peg and the nut as
well as the tension between the nut and the bridge. Ideally they should
be equal. So, when you want to raise the pitch

Looking ahead 6 months to a drier future down under, and borrowing trouble

When I received a lute that had sticking pegs (it hadn't been played in a long
while) I didn't want to order and then wait for a peg winder. I used pliers.

Welcome, Claudia.
Peg turners are fine as a way of protecting your fingers in the course
of everyday tuning, but I worry about their use as a violent solution
for sticking pegs. Apart from breaking the pegs, you could (even more
expensively) break the pegbox as well. I think once your pegs h
