What A Great Buy!
The Planet Waves Pro String Winder And Cutter was one of the best additions i ever made to my array of guitar and bass tools. This tool can cut through even the thickest of those bass strings and is built to last. I bring it on stage with me werever i go and i will never go to a gig without it! It has a great tuning tool which will tune knobs as big as fenders tuning keys! Its built to be in tough situations when the average wire cutter just dosent quite "cut" it. I reccomend buying this tool, you will NOT be dissapointed.

Good Winder/Cutter, but no Pin Puller
I was happy with the string winder it is large enough for all my Basses, and even a full size cello. It winds and unwinds smoothly and quickly. The string cutter was easy and even cut my E-string with ease on the first try, cut string when straight don't cut on a bend, I checked out the cutter on several used strings and each time it cut clean and easily when the string was straight, but when it was bent it took a couple tries and the end looked frayed. I do not have a low B-string, but cut fine on the low C-string on the cello. My problem with this winder is it does not have a pin puller on the end, I have an Ibanez Acoustic/Electric and the pin puller on a regular guitar string winder will not fit the pins any more than it will wind the strings, so if you don't need a pin puller this is a great winder/cutter, if you do I would suggest a nylon notched car upholstery remover available at your local auto parts store for a few bucks.

Bought this because the one I had was a cheaper make and failed when I needed it most. This did not and mage it a lot easier to get the pins out. Would recommend it in the future.
Finally, a string winder and string cutter for bass guitar.

Will this product work with acoustic guitars, e. Guitars, or mandolin? I need to change mandolin strings but I don't want to hand crank
