- Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2025Color: BlackStyle: Guitar ProWinderVerified PurchaseI had never restrung a guitar but watched a few videos to learn the process. Saw this tool on one and decided to try it out. The built-in cutter works great for cutting the strings. The puller works great to release the string, and the winder made my first install go by in about 15 minutes. Was even happier after I broke one and had to do it again. It only took me about five minutes to install, wind, stretch, and tune. Build quality left no concerns.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2025Color: BlackStyle: Guitar ProWinderVerified PurchaseExactly what I was looking for, one tool that does it all. Winding, cutting, and pin pulling are easy. Plus it carries the D'Addario name.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2025Color: BlackStyle: Guitar ProWinderVerified PurchaseGood string wider and etc. But it took them more than 2 weeks to deliver where I could get it at music store locally much faster
- Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2025Color: BlackStyle: Guitar ProWinderVerified PurchaseWorked really well! It took the pins out with ease and cut strings no problem. I never used a winder before when replacing strings but now I always will.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2025Color: BlackStyle: Guitar ProWinderVerified PurchaseGreat tool to have to replace guitar strings
- Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2025Color: BlackStyle: Guitar ProWinderVerified PurchaseVery handy little tool that made restringing my wife's guitar so much faster.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2025Color: WhiteStyle: Guitar ProWinderVerified PurchaseCan't go wrong with these handy tools. If you've never used one of these they are quite handy. They allow you to quickly wind the strings up when changing strings. The tuning peg socket has 2 sizes for different peg sizes. The clipper end is a must! No need to use bulky side cutters/wire cutters with this. If your guitar is relatively secured (I highly recommend a neck cradle for any guitar work, even string changes, you can get one as cheap as ~$10 here on Amazon) then you can easily use this with 1 hand while you're using your other hand to keep tension on the string at the peg while you wind. I have a black one and I though I'd lost it but it was just hidden in my tool cabinet under a black guitar cable. So I ordered this white one to be more visible in the guitar tools/cables drawer. I've since found my black one, so now I have 2. Having 2 is a good thing. One will stay in my guitar case and one in my tool cabinet.

TiziReviewed in Italy on April 19, 20255.0 out of 5 stars Avvolgicorde di qualità eccezionale
Color: BlackStyle: Guitar ProWinderVerified PurchaseA distanza di 8 anni dall'acquisto, posso dire che questo avvolgicorde è perfetto, punto.
In quanto liutaio lo uso praticamente tutti i giorni e non mi ha mai deluso. Un mese fa ha iniziato a "scricchiolare" dall'usura, ma è bastato aggiungere una piccola guarnizione di gomma alla base della testa rotativa ed ora è come nuovo. La pinza taglia le corde senza problemi, e nonostante non mi sia mai fidato del tutto dell'estremità in plastica che serve a rimuovere i piroli sulle chitarre acustiche (essendo in plastica ho sempre pensato potesse abbandonarmi da un momento all'altro), è ancora perfetto e funzionale come il primo giorno.
Acquisto fondamentale e azzeccatissimo.
