Hardware for Improving The Tuning Stability of Electric and Steel String Guitars

  • Designed for guitars with 3L/3R machine heads on oversized headstock
  • Corrects the position of the E, A, D, G, B, E strings to a straight course through the nut grooves, thus preventing the guitar strings from getting stuck in the nut
  • Makes instruments more stable in tuning and more sustain-rich
  • Keeps the tuning of the strings even with very intense guitar playing (also copes with extreme bending)
  • Quick and easy to build
  • Version V4 with minimum hole spacing 57 mm / maximum hole spacing 78 mm
  • Colour: Black

Note: Not compatible with machine heads with impact sleeves / sockets!

Needed some filing to fit my Gretsch GT2622T
Roelof 15.05.2019
The build quality of this part is great, but do make sure it actually fits your guitar. With my Gretsch it just a bit too wide, pushing the tuner bushings to the sides. Some careful sanding with a Dremel resulted in a better fit. The result is ok and does help with string binding. If you are using this on a Gretsch too, do not forget to file the nut slots too after installation so they align again with the new string angle.

In Verbindung mit der Ibanez AR 420 problematisch.
Joergfux 23.03.2019
Leider war des String Butler für meine Ibanez AR 420 nicht passend, obwohl das schon die größte Größe war.
Das Problem war dass die Spindeln der zwei E-Saiten zu weit auseinander waren und der String Butler sich so sich nicht montieren ließ.
Ich habe dann vorsichtig mit einer Rundfeile die Nuten entsprechend etwas aufgefeilt und entgratet und damit konnte ich dann den String Butler auch an meiner Gitarre montieren.
Nun kann ich auch Bendings durchführen ohne dass die Stimmung darunter leidet.

Skutečně pomáhá kompenzovat neduhy Bigsby.
Bílá Vrána 02.08.2022
Používám na kytarách Gretsch ke kompenzaci tradičních neduhů vibráta Bigsby - rozlaďování zejména G struny. Jednoznačně pomáhá! Na povrchové úpravě a tvaru výrobku by šlo ještě mnohé vylepšit. Hrana mohla mít úkos pod úhlem nebo zaoblený, lakování mohlo být kvalitnější, dochází k otěru na hranách, někdo by jistě raději připevnil šroubky (na které jsou ve výrobku sice otvory, ale postrádají zahloubení) místo pod matice kytarových mechanik, protože u zamykacích mechanik bojujete s výškou otvoru zejména E struny...

Simple fix to a simple problem
Pe-pe 22.11.2022
I have a Flying V, and the string pull on those classic Gibson headstocks is insanely bad especially with an adjustable nut and thick strings. This fixes the problem very easily.

One of the biggest pros of the string butler is that it's a simple installation. Just mount it on 2 tuning heads and that's it.

A compact solution to a design flaw, highly recommended.
