Economically, it is affordable, and I predict that it will be considerably more expensive as time passes. I too look forward to more upscale knob options for the Schertler tuner and am all ears if anyone knows of any.
I've contacted Schertler re: button options. We'll see what the answer is, if I get one. Their website lists pearloid, gold, satin chrome and shiny nickel as button options... But I want ivoroid...

If anyone is familiar with anyone out there custom making buttons, can you please put me in touch?

GOTOH buttons DO NOT fit. I will try Hipshot this week and Schaller by the end of the month... my hopes are not so high.
