4 String 2+2 Bass Ratio Y-Style Button (PRB-4220, Select Finish)

RATIO® patented gear technology
RATIO® - Calibrated Machine Heads incorporate different string gauges into the tuning equation.

From Low E to G - 36:1, 30:1, 20:1, 18:1.

We balanced the gear ratios to each string simplifying the tuning process.

With RATIO®, a half turn is a semi-tone!

Every string reacts the same to any tuning adjustment. Predictable, precise tuning, on every string.
