peg winder

Post by Johntheson »

What peg winder is everyone using to restring their Ric basses? Although it can be done without one; I've always found it easier to use a peg winder on all my six strings, but this is my first large tuner instrument. Thanks.

That is so cool - but I bet some poor doofus is going to try and replicate this with their cordless drill and home-made "tuner bit".... with string and/or tuner breaking results.....

I use a cordless screwdriver which is much slower than a cordless drill. It works great. Elderly sells key winders that have a 1/4" hex shaft that fit the drill perfectly.
