Works as intended USA MADE!
I was hesitant purchasing this item for my Martin 11E because the tuner is inside the soundhole.I took a chance. Indeed, the cover made of thick rubber depressed the tuner button and turned off the guitar preamp. I slightly cut off a tiny part on top where the cover touched the tuner, and now it works perfectly and still gives the same level of control. The cut could be more aesthetic, but It's not visible from a distance. I love that it is USA-MADE (so my money will not go to the communist Republic of China!).
