Product Rating Product Review I got this to try and speed up the restringing process. It works great. No more hand winding or using hand winders. I am a lazy, lazy man and much prefer machine power to hand power. Works great. No complaints.

Product Review Great product for a great price! Really happy with this purchase! I have been adjusting my guitars by hand and this is so much faster and being battery operated really helps with storing and not having to plug in all the time. It is just wonderful and a needed tool I did not realize how much it helps until I got one!

Product Review The winder runs great, but it lacks torque, and the wrench part didn’t fit my Ibanez bass very well.

Product Review It is very plastic, and much slower than you see in videos. Hand winder may be quicker, but this will help your arthritis a bit for cheap if you have that issue.

Product Review I've been changing strings the "hard way" for years, so I figured I'd give one of these a go. Man, I sure wish I would have gotten one of these sooner. It makes changing strings SOOOO much easier. The build quality seems like it could be a bit better, but it hasn't failed me yet, so we'll see.

Product Review I guess it is a “no-brainer” that Ernie Ball would make an excellent tool to make string changes quicker and easier, right? I thought a manual string winder was fine, then I saw an AMS note about a great deal this and I figured “what the hey,i’ll check it out.” I get it, now —- easier, quicker string changes = more new sets of Ernie Ball string. Dang, they are smart! Get one for youself and we’ll all be smart, too.

Product Review For years I always thought powered string winders were gimmicky. Well I was wrong. This winder is simple small easy to use and plain just works. Not much else to say, but makes changing strings that much faster!

Product Review What can one say about a string winder tool? It works for all the various pegs on the guitars in my studio, and I haven’t run the batteries out after about 9 string changes, which seems pretty good to me.

Product Review No batteries included w/ purchase. Battery cover was off upon arrival, and it’s so light that it seems very cheap, almost toy like, but may work just fine though. Can’t say for sure because I haven’t used it yet. For what it is and does, I’m sure it’ll do just fine and will definitely speed up the job of changing strings!

Your general opinion of this product. As cool as it looks. where my guitar goes my PowerPeg string winder goes Very solid construction, just like a new style drill just lighter, easy to handle Very nice to have on hand, my advice use the best batteries in this thing or they drain fast, pluc it runs faster with good batteries N/A Very easy to use, I wish I would have got one long ago Red and Black, cant go wrong with those two colors, it is very cool looking and have had many comments on it already Well I just got it, but it seems very durable so im hoping it lasts for a long time to come

It is made out of Plastic, just like Drills you buy now and most tools. So I am sure it will be just fine. Don't know yet, but I really do not see any reason this does not last for as long as I take normal care of it. Your general opinion of this product. Great Tool for Changing Strings. It really helps get a nice tight wrap. Plus speeds up the process, make changing strings a breeze. "Does not come with 4 AA Batteries as the Description states..." Works great, not to heavy and winds smoothly... Good Gear Mesh It is Fine.. Definatly will not fade.. Switch works fine...

A Great Guitar tool...

It is well made, although it is constructed of Plastic... If you take care of you stuff like I do this thing will outlast us both... I've only owned it for a few days, but it does appear to be well made considering what it is used for.. Your general opinion of this product. If you own and maintain one or more guitars, this tool really comes in handy ... I hate changing strings and anything that can assist me in this headache and even make it a little more tolerable is a welcome addition to my tool box... Cool Tool! Totally Smooth... Totally high tech Red and Black... And Yes, I have a sense of humor.. I've already used it a couple of times and , God I love it. It really speeds things up...
