Hi Derek - Yes, I only bought one because I was changing a lot of guitar strings at once, along with guitars owned by others where I needed to put a fresh set of strings on. Certainly made life a bit easier....Next week I will be changing strings on a rather unusual guitar getting delivered on Saturday which I will do a review on... regards: Stu
Hi Allen - Thanks for that... as you say, if you have a few guitars and change strings regularly its worth a look. Next video on Friday, features - Guess Who outside "Guitar-Guitar" Store in Edinburgh! ;-) And yes... the parcel arrived on Saturday... all will be revealed on Friday... ;-) Regards: Stu
I always remove the batteries and then reinstall them when using the winder. The batteries will last much longer this way "and" you don't run the risk of having a battery discharging acid (leaking). Putting a thick rubber-band on the handle to hold the batteries, while not in use and your good to go every time!
Hi Amin - As always... many thanks! Yes its even sunny in Scotland just now and we Scots do love to see the sun... which is not very often ;-) I trust you will have a great summer Amin... are you going to be able to go on a holiday trip anywhere? best regards - Oh... by the way... I have a guitar coming into the studio today I think you might really like... I hope to have a video of it next Friday.... : Stu
Hi Rob - Thanks... Next week I have a guitar I will be reviewing that has been creating a bit of a stir..!. I also just had one of the channels followers (Alan) come over from the USA for a jam session...! He brought a couple of pedals for me to try out... been really great and took him to a local guitar store he was keen to visit. Regards: Stu
@@robertcalvin2643 Happy Birthday Rob...! mmm... I wonder what that might be? I look forward to that...! My latest acquisition will be delivered today and I'm looking forward to the unboxing.... regards: Stu
I have seen my local guitar tech. string A LOT guitars and wind the pegs to tuning in a very short time but he had been doing it for many years so I suppose it is just practice. I have never used a string winder BUT for those who need / want one - fair enough but will the workings of a mechanical unit break down eventually? Cheers Stu.
Hi Rob... seeing as it's made in China - it may very well burst into flames at some point... all joking apart, it's actually quite sturdy and the patterned design helps to make it less cheap and cheerful looking... time will indeed tell how long it will last... regards: Stu
Motor doesn't last long. Had mine for a few years now and the motor slows right down to nothing I've moved up to the the pro and works alot better for me
Hi Robert - Thanks for chipping in... much appreciated. Always good to hear other folks experiences. I've had the unit a while now and I don't use it that often but so far it's still working fine. Certainly if I did use a winder more frequently then it would be best to look at something built of higher quality... regards: Stu

I didn’t realise how useful a string winder is until I tried one. Manual does for me but I can appreciate the benefits of a power winder 👍

Very practical and well thought video. These are the things that folks with multiple guitars need to know. Thanks Stu, cheers mate!
