==The Kluson brand today==

===Original Reissues===
Under the ownership of WD Music Products, Inc. Kluson has re-engineered many of the original products lines. Kluson now produces technologically improved versions of their original stamped steel tuning machines, #9 tailpiece, Waffleback tuning machines, and [[Gibson Firebird]] banjo tuning machines.

===Expanding the brand===
In addition to re-engineering original catalog offerings, Kluson has also expanded to include a range of [[Fender Telecaster]], [[Fender Stratocaster]], and [[Tune-o-matic]] bridges, tuning machine bushings, [[Pickguard]] brackets, and other hardware made in the USA. The Kluson "Supreme" series was introduced as an 18:1 [[Gear train|gear ratio]] upgrade to the original stamped steel tuning machines. A locking version of the vintage stamped steel tuning machines is also available.
