Practical and a time saver November 28, 2008 Maria A. Jaime Moros (Caracas, Venezuela.) I think the product is great but could use some improvement. The handle is big and sits confortably in the hand while you're taking out the strings and putting the new ones in. The rotating head is not too loose or too firm, making it easier for you to continue the motion and by that, to re-string faster. It also has enough space for the tuning pegs to fit confortably in the head. I have two different guitars, with different pegs and both fit. The cutter is very easy to use, anyone who has ever used a scissor can use it, and it doesn't need much strenght to cut the string, even the fattest one.
The one problem I find is in the bridge pin puller. It's too wide for my taste. I guess they designed it like that so it wouldn't harm the body of the guitar, but it makes it hard to pull out the pins. That makes it difficult if you own an acoustic like me.
wind me up better than imagined August 23, 2008 Joseph Santarromana (los angeles) thought this would make stringing my guitar easier and it did but it also made stringing my guitar downright enjoyable! the design is really functionable the peg puller is great, the winder zip zap patty wack! and the cutter all do their jobs. when i strung my first guitar with this i even notice how nice the strings look perfectly and evenly wounded cause usually im a sloppy winder, i love this thing!
Best Winder July 30, 2008 Cynthia Winchester (San Antonio TX) I have bought so many winders, this beats them all It has a cool cutter on it also
Nice buy July 25, 2008 J. R. Mcgraw Nothing is really essential in this little guy, but it puts two helpful things together on one. I always forget stuff, so for me its great to know I just need this and I'm set for tuning and cutting. It does both really well, and frankly, its not that expensive. I don't think its a necessity, but I would recommend it if you're thinking about it. Which you probably are. Because you're reading this.
OK, but! June 5, 2008 G. Thomas (CA) Not much better than the dollar version of the peg winder. Thought it would be more ergonomic and having the stringer cutter in one tool would be a plus.... but, not quiet up to par. You'll be better off with the dollar string winder and a cheap pair of snips.
