Compact and highly rated, it’s a must-have for maintaining perfect pitch. ## Description Made by Hindersine Corporation in the England. This quality peg compound helps lubricate pegs which no longer turn smoothly. This is the original Hill Peg Compound, not an imitation! Review: It works!! - My custom-made fiddle wasn't staying in tune, due to temperature changes I think. The Peg Dope was suggested by a friend, and I used it and no more problem, for now at least! My pegs were slipping, but I understand that it also works to lubricate pegs that won't turn easily. Good stuff. I ordered online and the order was here within a couple of days. I have Prime membership, and live 20 miles from the nearest town, so everything (FedEx or UPS) worked all along the way. Review: Good stuff, highly recommended - After recently changing the strings on my violin, the G string began to slip, and it was not possible to tighten the peg sufficiently to stop it. I removed the peg and applied the HIll Compound on the two shiney spots on the peg where it contacts the peg box. Then reinserted the peg and turned it around a few times to cost the peg box with the compound. Then removed the peg and and applied more Compound to the same two spots, reinserted the peg and attached the G string. I was then able to sufficiently tighten the peg so as to not slip. I think that possibly the Hill Compound lubricates the peg and the peg box so that you can insert the peg more fully, getting a tighter fit and stopping the slipping. ## Features - The ORIGINAL Hill Peg Compound, not an imitation! - Quality peg compound - Made in England - Pegs turn smoother - Lubricates ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01BESKXAS | | Best Sellers Rank | #6,927 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #1,795 in Guitar & Bass Accessories | | Brand Name | W.

Or is it "magic" and can help in either situation? Thank you.** A: In general -- Peg Compound is to allow you to turn the pegs to tune the instrument. This peg compound prevents the pegs from sticking to the instrument (while still holding the peg & tune in place). So I guess the short answer to your question is that peg compound prevents the pegs from getting too tight. **Q: do I have to unwind the strings and take the peg out to use this? -- sorry I'm new with the violin** A: yes,the every peg has to be removed for getting service with any peg compound. please,make the two rings around of every peg,do not touch the area where strings winding going to be ! with my pleasure. **Q: what's the difference between this and Hill the Original Peg Compound?** A: I don't know about the original one. The Hill peg in the tube, you rub it on the peg and when you wind up the string the Hill peg compound keeps the string from slipping. It doesn't take much on the peg. Hope this helped some. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works!! *by M***C on December 14, 2019* My custom-made fiddle wasn't staying in tune, due to temperature changes I think.

Worth the money. *by C***2 on October 18, 2020* I have an old violin someone gave me, and I was unable to tune it. Possibly because of the weather, but also one of the pegs is different from the other three, the E. It clearly does not fit the peg holes very well, particularly the small end. The others break free with a loud click, then refuse to stay in place once tuned. I have read up on all this, rewound the strings so that they are properly positioned on the peg, tried using pressure as I wound them. Only occasionally would a peg hold tuning, and it was the D string. With the E, I also tried removing the peg, cleaning it, and then putting a little chalk on it and putting it back in. This *kind of* worked, but not reliably. So I ordered the Hill product. I have a couple of comments. First, it is shaped really wierd. It is in a somewhat loose and inaccurate lipstick-style dispenser, the same size as a lipstick. I does not have a convenient shape to the end (hopefully I did not get a used one), so it was not really possible to apply it to the pegs without removing the. Filing into a better shape would have wasted a lot of product. So I removed the pegs, one by one, cleaned them gently and applied the hill to the shiny strips on the pegs. I replaced all the pegs and tuned the violin. Perfectly. And it has stayed in tune. Even the E which I am sure is not making solid contact with the peghead on the small end. It is still not exactly what I would call very easy to tune, I could never do it with one hand while playing the instrument with the bow, but it is OK, just put some pressure on the strings and they tune and hold. My next temp will be to rebuild the peghead, reaming out the holes and putting in new, properly shaped pegs. But the Hills made it possible for me to play this instrument, and it has a very nice sound. Worth the money. ## Frequently Bought Together - HILL The Original Peg Compound (HILL-ZW-97) - D'Addario Prelude Violin String Set, 4/4 Scale, Medium Tension – J810 4/4M - Solid Steel Core, Warm Tone, Economical and Durable – Educator’s Choice for Student Strings – 1 Set - The Original Peg Drops by Ardsley - 0.33 Fl.
