Here's link from their website: www.taylorguitars.com/taylorware/tuners/taylor-standard-tuners 21:1 for their upper end stuff.
	===================================== "Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." - Jesus, from Matthew 11:28-30
