The String Butler and how it made my day (Review)

Re: The String Butler and how it made my day (Review)

I am all for anything that solves issues like this. I don't care that it doesn't look traditional- a working part is more important to me. I bet there is a more elegant way to design something like this as an integral part of the guitar, but it probably wouldn't be on something as traditional as an LP.

Absolutely right on. Generally I'd say that's the way I feel...function is the main concern. And that solves a big problem that most 3x3 guitars have (notice I didn't rag on Gibson).

But, darn it, that thing sure is big and ugly!

On the weight thing, I personally do not feel any difference at all. The butler weighs what, 1/8 pound? And for looks, here's what it looks like on mine

Ugh! I would have stayed with the basic black theme of the headstock myself.

Different strokes. I personally like the way it's out in the open. If it's black it looks like I'm hiding it - this looks like a mod to me.

Yeah, different strokes.
