ABSTRACT:
A peg box for a stringed instrument adapted to facilitate the introduction of the musical strings in the aperture of the tuning pegs. The peg box is made of a solid beam of material having a flat upper face and transversal channels for rotatably receiving the pegs. Bores extend from the upper face of the beam to the channels. Diametral apertures in the tuning pegs are aligned with the bores according to a predetermined reference mark. The musical strings are easily introduced into the bores and are automatically aligned with the apertures of the pegs. The threading of the musical strings is facilitated and made even easy for a blind person.
