Axis Schaller issue

Axis Schaller issue

Anyone had this happen before? I was restringing and the high E suddenly had a lot of tension when turning the button. It suddenly stopped (either direction) and when I gave it a…stupid additional twist….the pearloid button shattered. It appears the gears inside the tuner body jammed and the post no longer turns in either direction.

Thank goodness MM sells them individually. Schaller is 50 euros to ship a single from Europe, and all online locations I found wanted me to purchase a full set of tuners.
