Love my locking tuners! Better tuning stability and so easy to change strings.

[@CC_pokestop]

I like restringing my guitar, therapeutic almost. Makes me one with the wood 😂

[@BigTexGuitarz]

Same. I dreaded restringing until I finally took the time to learn properly. Then for a bit I almost looked forward to changing strings. Admiring my beautiful winding work afterwards 😆

[@MetalGodMasino]

I only want to tempt suicide when i change strings, maybe not on normal guitars. But on the Floyd Rose? Jesus...

[@santosl.harper4471]

I have the fender locks on a homebuilt strat. They look great and they work great as well but, I still prefer standard posts. A perfect 3.5 wrap is very satisfying

[@gus23a]

Yes, i will put locking tuners on my all original 1962 Strat.

Lockinh tuners doesn't affect your tone neither your life

cant you add locking tuners??

forget the resell value if you want to play it. But if you want to play it, yes add locking tuners.

[@death0nion224]

I'm going to keep doing this.

[@MaxPowweer1]

I love restringing my basses. Especially the ones that go months without being swapped (the ones I'd not giged, not a total philistine) The satisfaction of removing dull, old strings, cleaning the fingerboard and the areas of the body you normally car clean well. Very satisfying

[@SaltyPopcornTv]

months? my bass will get a restring when my grandchildren inherit it

Whats a good bass string? I like deep lows bottom end sound

Each guitar I’ve had weigh locking tuning pegs I’ve swapped out for the traditional tuning pegs and just locked the strings in with a luthiers knot.

[@johnmccormick8159]

On a guitar with pickguard-mounted componets, locking tuners are great if you like to fiddle with the electronics.

[@ursafan40]

It's not that difficult to change strings and wrap them so they stay in tune better on old style tuners. But locking tuners are much faster and I have had no tuning or string breakage problems with my Fender locking tuners. I won't go back

[@FlatDrifting265]

Me crying with vintage style tuners

[@treeman5263]

I just got a sterling cutlass and it has looking tuners and I’m still figuring it out but it is way easier. And less scary

[@artworksband]

Yeah, less scary!

[@guitarhours1842]

This will work for lower strings but any that aren’t wound can snap pretty easily if they are locked like that

[@Mark_Z1]

I’ve been using them for years, never had any strings break because of that. I’ll have a high e string break, if I leave a set a strings on for a long time but i rarely do that.

[@mihaelgeci8181]

O my fingies huwt..

[@youztuber5000]

I don't cut them, I twist them off

[@nathanadnitt]

Im an old fashioned way kinda man lmao it takes me ages to restring

[@sanyavanya]

The solution is to barely ever change the strings.

[@DudeTotally1000]

​@@sanyavanya As a bass player I approve your statement. 😂

[@VEV-cu6no]

​@@DudeTotally1000buying a new bass is cheaper than changing the strings

[@DudeTotally1000]

@@VEV-cu6no It definitely feels that way. I'm from the Jamerson school, that tone that only comes from old ass strings is great.

[@konradmarczyk2120]

If you have problems with restring with normal keys you just need to stop drinking so your hands doesnt shake. Thats so fcking easy that i realy don't understand how beople can have problems with it

[@SameAsAnyOtherStranger]

With a crank handle winder you save- what? maybe five minutes? And what if you want to go to drop D or any other alternate tuning?

[@prismatic1239]

Then you can, nothing changes.

[@mark5150ty]

You're actually supposed to still wrap the post a few times, the locking mechanism is only meant to keep the string from slipping not breaking. If you install your strings the way you have in this video You're sustained will be terrible.

[@sanyavanya]

Interesting suggestions, I should check that.

[@nickkellie]

Yes- it creates a weak spot where the string enters the tuner and the tuning isn’t stable especially if using the tremolo. I like to have one wrap to prevent this.

[@mark5150ty]

@@nickkellie I still do three on the bass strings and 5 to 8 on the treble it helps pull the strings lower across the nut for better sustain.

[@scottkingsley6905]

Only wrapped once?

[@fukwidgets]

That's the point of locking tuners, you don't need to wrap them at all

[@derrickisgolden4337]

What kind of monster tarnishes an entire pack of strings for one string

[@NorfarPS3]

I'm confused, I thought locking tuners locked the tuners from going out of tune. Do they not?

[@guitargatekeeper]

the luthier knot can be done by a 5 year old

[@alexjackson8841]

I’m amazed at the amount of people who have no idea how locking tuners work 😂 “good luck down tuning” “unnecessary invention” “can’t use them with 9s”… Guys they’re just regular tuners but with a clamp inside to stop slipping, there’s no downsides

[@Augrills]

Lol, you can leave them unlocked and they’re just regular tuners. There’s objectively no downside to locking tuners and I’ve never a met a guitar player in real life that hates them. Maybe a few indifferent to them or they’re not “must haves” for them.

Does bass guitar have like that?

[@brainpadrep]

You still need to wrap 1x

[@sanyavanya]

I usually don't even wrap 1x, works just fine.

[@Mark_Z1]

I never do I line the tuning peg hole, straight with the neck. I put the string in, make sure all of the slack is out and lock it down, never have any problems.

[@BigTexGuitarz]

Why were these things not normalized way early on? I’m sure a ton of people quit playing guitar once they popped their first few strings and never got more because they didn’t know how to put some winds on a post

[@User-cvhuidghjv]

It not 1982, today we have lockers, guitar processors, high performance computers with daw and other pro tools, youtube, thousands lessons and "how to" video for any aspect of music production. But we haven't good music

1 cutting string like this will rip off your case 2 i have almost same amount of wire on the tune without any locking tuners

[@andyferno9274]

Locking tuners are terrible

[@jmakc3541]

No thanks, bro. I play 9's and I get tired of buying new strings from the B and E breaking at the point of the clamp.

[@ursafan40]

Either your tuner hole has a sharp edge or maybe you're tightening too hard. 13 years and I can remember one time it snapped there and I had the strings on for months at that point. Old strings or new, it shouldn't be a problem.

[@jmakc3541]

@@ursafan40 It becomes a problem on guitars that don't see high-frequency string changes. Repeated tuning over time causes the clamp point to wear and break b/c it has no wrap to help support the stress. Most players who use this style of locking tuner do so for speed in string changes... and b/c they change strings at a higher frequency, they don't usually notice a breakage issue due to prolonged wear. For the guy who plays every night in his garage and only changes strings a few times/year, he's going to break them on short order- just from tuning. Now, if you want to talk vintage-style peg locks, I'm all ears, as that is a far superior design.

[@ursafan40]

@@jmakc3541 I'll take your word for it, but for a few years, I was that guy who didn't change his strings but a couple times a year. Never had a problem. Then I started playing with other people and they let me know "Your strings are dead, sound like crap, change them. Trust me guitar's tone will be much better" They were right.

[@The_Fat_Turtle]

@@jmakc3541 I put coated strings and locking tuners on my Ibanez RG so I don't have to mess with the floyd rose so often.
