Hey Chongolio, I just re-read your first post and saw that your Treholipee also has a couple of broken pegs. I've been told that violin pegs will work, although they won't have that cool paddle shape.

That's why I've been reluctant to try and tune my other ones, because the pegs are so tight I'm afraid they'll break if I try to turn them.

Somewhere I have the original hang-tag from one of these, with Steve Allen's picture on it. For the youngsters out there, Steve Allen was the host of the Tonight Show before Jay Leno and Johnny Carson. Apparantly Steve Allen liked and endorsed the Treholipee. The hang tag also recommended using guitar strings if you need replacements.
