    Sorry to hear, but I've gotta ask - why cut strings BEFORE they're wound around the tuner?

    (I've played bass since the late '70's - yes, I'm that old )

    I mean, no offense, but I don't really see why, like guitar players from Creed, or something like that, are on the cover of guitar magazines. Almost anybody can sit down and learn to play those songs.

    It's the vintage style tuner where you put the string into the hole in the middle of the post first, then wrap it around the post. In general I prefer them to standard tuners because it is easier to string and unstring. Here is one notable exception.

    They look just like these tuners:
    Axen: Jackson DK2M, Fender Deluxe Nashville Telecaster, Reverend Warhawk 390, Taylor 914ce, ESP LTD Surveyor-414
    Amphen: Jet City JCA22H and JCA12S cab, Carvin X-60 combo, Acoustic B20
    Effecten: "Thesis 96" Overdrive/Boost (aka DVM OD2), Hardwire DL-8 Digital Delay/Looper, DigiTech Polara Reverb, DigiTech EX-7 Expression Factory and CF-7 Chorus Factory, Danelectro CF-1 Cool Cat Fuzz
