Topic: Auto-Trim Tuning Machines

Upon opening a new pack of D'Addario strings I saw an advert for 'The Ultimate Cutting Tuner' the web site link is:

The design seems great to me and I am considering changing to them. I am intersted if anyone has has any experience or comments on them please.

Thank you,

Roger

Roger,

I looked them up on the website link and they (the tuners) run about $60.00 american.  I can buy a set of quaility dike's (diagonal cutters in U.S.A.) for around $8.00 american and use them on all my guitars to trim strings.  The other $52.00 is a plus in my pocket.  Just my way of thinking.

Bootlegger.

Hi Bootlegger,

Put like that it makes perfect sense. I can buy a lot of strings (or beers) for the $60.00 as I already have a good pair of diagonal cutters.

Thank you,

Roger

Wow!  That looks like a really expensive solution to a non-problem.  big_smile

Someday we'll win this thing...
