Review title: Neat Concept, Poor Execution
Product review: I put a set of these tuners on a Gibson SG less than a year ago. Cool idea; straightforward string locking mechanism and built in cutter. They look very nice, too. However, right from the get-go the tuner for the high E string would often let it slip. I ended up using multiple wraps around the post just like a standard tuner to make it hold. Minor aggravation. Now, within the last month, two of the tuners have broken. Yes, I play strings that are a little heavier than usual, and I do a bunch of string bending. Still, for what these things cost and the hype, I expected more. I ended up replacing these with Wilkinson tuners for a LOT less money. The Wilkinsons have two holes at 90 degree angles through each post. It results in a very simple, yet very effective string locking system. And the Wilkinsons are very well made. I took one apart before deciding to use them on my guitar, and was surprised and impressed at the quality of the components.
