Also has a 12:1 ratio.They might be older tuners- maybe 80ish ????? |

I think you mean these:
http://schaller-guitarparts.de/0117.htm
I know them because I've got them laying in the drawer. I took them of a broken old spanish guitar of my cousin Harry's (yet another one) German wife. She had them installed as replacements on the side of the slotted headstock.
According to my friend and luthier Harry, Schaller tuners are the best. Schallers (but not the nylon ones) are OEM on several top guitars. And there are never troubles with them. But I must say, I'm also very satisfied with Gotohs and old Grovers.
Prices are from about $52-100 at Stewmac (cheaper if you buy 3 or more sets). I didn't see the light nylons at www.stewmac.com but they are €35.90 in Germany.
