Needed some filing to fit my Gretsch GT2622T

Roelof 15.05.2019

The build quality of this part is great, but do make sure it actually fits your guitar. With my Gretsch it just a bit too wide, pushing the tuner bushings to the sides. Some careful sanding with a Dremel resulted in a better fit. The result is ok and does help with string binding. If you are using this on a Gretsch too, do not forget to file the nut slots too after installation so they align again with the new string angle.

In Verbindung mit der Ibanez AR 420 problematisch.

Joergfux 23.03.2019

Leider war des String Butler für meine Ibanez AR 420 nicht passend, obwohl das schon die größte Größe war.
Das Problem war dass die Spindeln der zwei E-Saiten zu weit auseinander waren und der String Butler sich so sich nicht montieren ließ.
Ich habe dann vorsichtig mit einer Rundfeile die Nuten entsprechend etwas aufgefeilt und entgratet und damit konnte ich dann den String Butler auch an meiner Gitarre montieren.
Nun kann ich auch Bendings durchführen ohne dass die Stimmung darunter leidet.

Skutečně pomáhá kompenzovat neduhy Bigsby.

Bílá Vrána 02.08.2022

Používám na kytarách Gretsch ke kompenzaci tradičních neduhů vibráta Bigsby - rozlaďování zejména G struny. Jednoznačně pomáhá! Na povrchové úpravě a tvaru výrobku by šlo ještě mnohé vylepšit. Hrana mohla mít úkos pod úhlem nebo zaoblený, lakování mohlo být kvalitnější, dochází k otěru na hranách, někdo by jistě raději připevnil šroubky (na které jsou ve výrobku sice otvory, ale postrádají zahloubení) místo pod matice kytarových mechanik, protože u zamykacích mechanik bojujete s výškou otvoru zejména E struny...

Simple fix to a simple problem

Pe-pe 22.11.2022

I have a Flying V, and the string pull on those classic Gibson headstocks is insanely bad especially with an adjustable nut and thick strings. This fixes the problem very easily.

One of the biggest pros of the string butler is that it's a simple installation. Just mount it on 2 tuning heads and that's it.

A compact solution to a design flaw, highly recommended.
