ABSTRACT:
A tuning peg for a cello musical instrument where the tuning peg has a tapered cylindrical body which has an axially extending recess therein. A handle is removably mounted to the cylindrical body and has an axially extending connecting member which is adapted for insertion into the cavity. Upon insertion of the connecting member in whole or in part into the recess, the handle and cylindrical body are in fixed rotational relationship which permits the cylindrical body to be rotated in order to increase or decrease the tension in the cello string. After tuning the string, the handle is removed from the cylindrical body which permits the player to rest the neck of the cello against his neck and therefore play the instrument in an upright position.
