It does not matter how expensive machine heads a guitar are. It is important how the movement from the strings of a guitar nut are. The “STRING BUTLER” has been designed exclusively for guitars, which are fitted on the headstock with a 3L / 3R tuning machine heads . A good example are Les Paul guitar models. Another advantage of the “STRING BUTLER” is, that you can perform the installation by your self. It is recommended, after mounting the “STRING BUTLER” to use a new set of guitar strings. Your old strings may have already been damaged.
When assembling the “STRING BUTLER”, it is important to pull the old set of guitar strings off and clean the nut well. next, use your 10 mm or 0,39″ wrench to unscrew the machine heads there are tuners with those one the washer must leave out. if the nuts long enough, you can continue to use the washers of the tuning machines to secure the “STRING BUTLER”. you have to be carefull, because the threads are very sensitive, you should not draw the thread nuts too firmly. to prevent damage.

The risk for the supporters is relatively low, since the product has already reached the industrial maturity and can be reproduced in large units at short time.
