Where you do stand on wrapping strings with locking tuners?

    Jesue, do you suck the air out of the room when you walk in? Does the music stop when you attend a party?

    It's a joke about wrapping tuners.

      • If ya'll really want great tuning stability pull the sting through the peg-hole and then add a drop of Gorilla glue. No string slippage whatsoever.

            Sounds like a more potent version of Force Choke, does it not?

            • Slipknot's first two albums were awesome, though.

                • After just restringing a fairly cheap 12 string someone gave to me (I never owned one), I think Ned Steinberger had the right idea on his rare 12 string:

                  • I just broke my 1st string in literally 20 years - right at the clamping point of the locking tuner on my high B string - my 1st guitar with locking tuners, which I've owned for 1 month. That string is now wrapped normally with the locking screw loosened.

                      FYI - Demanic is a heavy one-way steam train that will never leave the rails.

                        Nah, Demanic’s cool, I like his dry sense of humour.

                              Interesting. I had my B string break recently on a guitar with locking tuners. Not at the clamp but fairly high up on the neck, maybe around the third fret. My first string break in probably 15 years. That said, it was strung by my luthier in a recent setup, not me. I restrung without any winds but tried to pull tight without too much tension. So far, so good. I am curious to see how that string holds up.

                              • I’m buying the Wilkinson EZ lockers from now on. They are the smoothest tuners I’ve ever had next to the original Grovers on my ‘86 MIJ Yami.

                                Oh, and I’m a 1-2 wrap guy otherwise.
