The string stretcher is great honestly. Eddies guitar tech swore by those for years and I agree with him. Makes stretching the strings easy and fast. I use 2 because when you slide them back and forth the friction makes them hot.
The real one is called String Stretcha, $14 on StewMac. He’s also using it wrong in the video. Lift a bit, then slide up and down the neck 2-3x. Been using my original one for years and don’t need to “30 mins of playing in the strings. “
@@Ovibos5 I should’ve mentioned that the one in this video is a knock off. I own the original as well. They are great and you’re right 3 to 4 times per string and done. You also don’t lift the strings till they break. Good call on it not being the original 👍
string stretchers are great to get rid of the looseness of the strings at the pegs, not rob one of precious practice but it really stabilized the instrument thus preventing playing out of tune for an hour.
I agree with all but one of those reviews, The string stretcher is actually a good product. Not sure why you dont stretch your strings when you first put them on but that device makes the stretching process go faster. You are actually supposed to put it on the string like you had it and slide it up and down a few times. The Ali express version is probably made much cheaper than the version I got earlier this year.
@@castleanthrax1833 Because when you have a lot of guitars (and especially if you're a guitar tech on tour with a band) there is much time to be saved with this tool, plus not all of us have indestructible hands and actually enjoy having at least some of our skin left for actually playing the guitar.
@@MrGul 18 guitars and counting, the majority of them get their strings changed at the same time. I stretch my strings with my hand and have plenty of skin left to play after without any tuning issues. Strings stretchers are just an unnecessary extra tool to get lost and cost a few dollars that could have been spent towards something necessary.
@@zakkmylde1712 Everyone isn't built the same. My fingers get wounds extremely easy from string stretching by hand and I don't enjoy the pain at all. The string stretcher may be unnecessary to you, but that doesn't mean it's unnecessary to everyone else as well.
It's actually a good product. You set it up on the string and use very light pressure from your hand to run it up and down the string a couple times then retune until it doesn't go out of tune. Usually 3 tries and you are done. I didn't get mine from aliexpress though. I got the string stretcha which is made in USA. Probably no difference and I over paid, but it works great.
Streching your strings actually gives you more time to play. Stretching them for a minute or two is a lot better than wasting 10 munites contantly retuning your strings while you're actually trying to play, but I and I think most people, just do it by hand, but I guess that product does make it faster/easier, but hands are just fine for that as well.
I love those string stretchers. I used to work in a music shop and had to set up multiple guitars a day and those stretchers saved my fingers a multitude of pain. Stretching strings by had all day really builds up the pain.
I came here to take up for the "string stretcher", but looks like MANY ppl beat me to it lol. For 30+ years I've ALWAYS stretched the strings by hand in that same fashion when installing new strings. I start by pressing the first fret, pull up on the string in a few different spots to stretch it, & repeat all the way down the fretboard - skipping every other fret or so - and continue doing so for every string. I find that the process saves me a lot of "break-in" time & provides much more tuning stability right off the bat. So that product would actually be very useful for me. In fact I'm going to order one right now! 😊
Lol I've used the Stretcha for years and I love it. It's just plain easier and more efficient than hand stretching and easier on my hands too! The only thing is you can overdo it if you don't know how to use it.
13:30... If you spent 5 to 10 minutes stretching them by pulling the strings with your fingers you wouldn't have to retune constantly and do all that bending. Not sure why you've never heard of doing this (or choose not to do this)... This tool makes it so you don't need to work your hands raw from stretching them with your fingers. If i remember correctly, the original manufacturer of the tool sells theirs for about $12 on Amazon, but i can't imagine a $4 knock off would be all too different.
I also don't understand the mentality of playing the strings in. Just stretch them so you can actually play the dang guitar instead of tuning every 5 minutes.
@@TheRockinDonkey Amazing. I’ve bought a bunch of AliExpress nuggets because of DankPods. Then I compare the gross earbud maracas to my AKG studio headphones lol
To be fair the string stretcher would be best suited in a live player situation. Sure you could argue they should already have a second guitar or the main one ready to go, but you see what I mean.
There's a string stretcher built in to the planet waves string winder I've used since like 2008. I've never used the string stretcher on it. I just do it by hand.
I tend to stretch my strings once or twice manually using my fingers and thank God that doesn't cost $4.04. I typically still need to play for a small break in period as a quick stretch usually doesn't remove any settling of the string or whatever black magic is happening when the strings become stable... love the video BTW 📹 ❤️
I pinch the strings together and pull up on them a little, give each a big bend and very rarely do I have any issues with them settling. I also know the sweet spot for stretching them at this point though, I used to love re string days or as my girlfriend calls them guitar spa days, but at 18 guitars, 3 basses and counting its becoming a literal whole day procedure. We'll worth it for the first few super crisp and clean pinch harmonics on each one though lol.
i like the string stretcher since i have sensory issues and stretching my strings fucks with them big time so it helps me do it without having to deal with the detuning
It's been said in a million other comments, but the string stretcher is great. It's something I toss in every guitar bag/case so I've always got one handy.
The rolling capo is a ripoff of the GL-1 Glider Capo, which is actually really good. Definitely heavy clamping force, but it makes mid-song key changes a breeze, especially if you're doing fingerstyle. A good example of it in use is Sungha Jung's video of "My Heart Will Go On"
Stretching your strings by hand actually very good way to break them in. This gadget just does it wrong, applying too much tension with a steep angle. I give them a good tug (while minding my force) from the middle point around 12th fret, while holding the string down around the 1/2 fret with my other hand. Makes everything settle down in its place.

Ali Express is the sort of retailer to re-label a warehouse full of 15 year old knock off brand vibrators as "physical therapy wands." Which is mostly bad, unless youre a vintage vibrator collector i guess. I did buy that weird finger pick holder from Ali, however, so take it for what it is. I supposed this runs parallels to life, where the journey requires you to constantly sift through the rebranded vibrators and junk to find the occasional keeper.
One of my friends had a rolling capo in the late '90s! I don't recall the manufacturer, but it worked horribly. If you changed its position the intonation would fuck up horribly.
String stretching is crucial after a string change, but i don't care about that plastic gadget. The shaker thing could be cool with an acoustic, depending the style of music played, and learning the technique to play with it! $18 for a wireless system was just too good to be true. Cool vid! May the algorithm god continue to bless you!

This dude obviously takes his guitars in to get strings changed or he would know you don't change strings on a FLOYD GUITAR without stretching them, because thats just shooting yourserlf in the foot
I could never go back to stretching by hand after using a string stretcher, it would be like going back to winding them by hand instead of a peg winder.
Really enjoyed the vid... lotta fun especially the fail item's 'disposal' ha ha, very inventive and ultimately practical. Have you tried the fretboard cleaning device that cleans without removing the strings??? I did, and it could double as an unwitting string stretcher lol.
Kinda disappointed you didn't use the multi tool for the purpose it showed in the picture on Ali Express. Changing tuning heads without the annoyance of having to remove the strings. I know that would be a huge time saver for me!
For everyone saying you can use your hands for stretching strings, sure you totally can. But imagine youre a guitar tech or manufacturer and have to string up 50 guitars a day, that would surely cause your hands to cramp up especially depending on what gauges are used. Just imagine trying to stretch 8 strings for 12 hours straight lol…
You paid for the wireless trasmission set a lot. You can find them in the price range between 8 and 10 bucks. I have bought them and use them without big problems. Of course not for rigs, but here at home if sometimes i need a fast connection to my small amp and i am lazy to get the kabel. For the price you can do nothing wrong.
