Dont you love it when a product:
-does what it claims
-does it well
-is a good deal?
I used my PlanetWaves Pro for the first time last night. The pin puller works smoothly, and the string winder doesnt come unscrewed constantly like every other one I've owned!
The componenet that really made my day was the string cutter. The 'blade' aint that sharp, but easily whacks the end of a low E string. Since there is only a little exposed metal, all of which is smooth and rounded, the risk of scratching your guitar is minimal, and the small cutting head makes it easy to trim the string very close to the peg.
The Pro String Winder appears to be well built, and I suspect that it will last me quite a while. Even if if conks out in a year (not that I think it will), its a good bargain, and I'll buy another.
Great product! |

| The string winder is larger and more comfortable to hold that any of the 'cheap' winders you buy at music stores. The winder part has smooth motion and the cutter works much better than expected. I thought maybe it would bend the strings rather than cut them. But so far, it snips cleanly through the strings and gets pretty close tot he peg head. If you change strings a lot, I would also recommend to yout he Planet Waves Headstand. |
Very easy to use.

I love the pin puller the most. The bottom of it is very thin so that it slides under the pin very easily. This was something that was not as easy to use on my $2.50 string winder.
The cutter was also fun to use. Snips very easily, but the grip is not that easy to maneuver. Still it is a very effective tool.
The string winder was also very good. My hands don't move in a perfect circular motion, and no where near it either, but this seems to help me achieve that fairly well, compared to my $2.50 string winder.
I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who is planning on changing strings. |
Nice buy

| 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. |
Fast and works well

| Made changing the strings on my strato-clone extremely easy and fast. The cutting blade is simple to use and cuts through my .008 gauge strings without hesitation. The winding head fitted my strat fine. Would highly recommend this product to any budding guitarists. |
