Uh, yeah, I have. Works great with a little brass drift for scooting =
wires around on the bridge, capo seating of wires, etc. I mean, it does =
say  'hammer" in all of the catalogues, right?  :-)  :-)   :-)  It's =
tricky, though, as the hitting surface will always be 5 degrees off =
tangent to the strike line.  More :-)

Say, no one has written about the Jahn ball end hammer yet. I'd be most =
interested in the reinforced angle of that head piece and how it feels =
when tuning stiff pins.

  Pardon the question if it's been answered before, but are there any of =
you that use the Jahn hammer that would care to comment on its quality =
and fitness for the job? Any users working with the ball end version? =
I'm considering a change from my battered and bruised Schaff-with-the =
square-head design.

    Hi Terry,

    Watanabe sells the Yamaha tools.
    They are great.
    The standard tuning hammer is excellent and their tips are great =
too.
