I found you can get the nuts a little bit tighter, with a 24” pipe wrench.

I’ve been using the String Butler for over 3 years on all of my Gibsons and recently, changed over to the V1 (which doesn’t cover the logo) and it solved immediately the tuning issues I used to have with guitars that have 3 tuners per side. I do gear reviews and have a recording studio where I record almost daily and in all honesty, the Butler helped a lot and it still does. I’m sorry it didn’t worked for you, but in my case and in the case of other friends of mine, we installed our V3’s or V1’s and never looked back.

Glad to hear - definitely did nothing for me to justify the price tag, although I did mention the smoother action of the rollers. Just a note that the V1 would definitely cover the Les Paul logo so not entirely sure I agree that it solves that particular issue

@@HowToPlayGuitarLikeABoss the V1 replaces the TRUSS ROD COVER, so no, it doesn’t cover any logos. The V3 (like the one you reviewed, does). Make sure your nut is lubricated, remember that friction is our enemy too. I’d recommend you giving it another try, like I said, for me and most guitarists I know that own Les Pauls here in Peru where I live, use the String Butler and we all agree on how it took away that G-String nightmare hehe

@@leovan83 I wouldn’t want to cover the truss rod either - that would remove the word “standard” fro the Les Paul I play. Like I say, the guitar went out of tune just as quickly as without the string butler, and it doesn’t affect either E string, I don’t think it’s worth the money

@@HowToPlayGuitarLikeABoss to each it’s own my brother, in my case and many other guitarists I know, the thing truly works. About the truss rod, sure, I understand, I wouldn’t do it to a very soecial guitar (vintage, limited edition, collector piece, etc) of course, however, since I now think of guitars as “tools” to make music, I can live with that sacrifice in exchange of tuning stability, specially in a studio environment (or live too).

If I were you and you were doing proper reviews I'd be embarrassed as you did not pick up on the fact that you're not slots aren't straight. A basic understanding of mathematics would help and also the recommendation that it gets set up by a proper guitar tech would have told you that you're not slots are not optimum for this product to work. Anyways I wish you the best of luck but I'll not be following any of your reviews and definitely guitar lessons. I would actually be embarrassed to put a review of like this not fully understand how the product works and the prerequisites that are required for this product to work properly. Terrible review

You've honestly just saved me 36 quid. Just seen a video of some dude winding his G, B and e strings upwards instead of downwards and apparently that does the job. Finding a bit hard to believe but going to give it a go with a fresh set of strings tomorrow when they arrive from my Prime delivery (cheese Bezos 👍)

Maybe this is what the StewMac videos are trying to correct when filing the nut downward at an angle. They rub the nut with a pencil (that just sounds wrong :) to get graphite into the groove to act as a lube. Should work but clean your dirty nut afterward.

The V3 worked for a pair of Gretsch Streamliners I have. I've only had them on for a few days, but tuning is a minor issue for each session now. Yes, they're expensive, but worked for me.

Great invention that works exactly as advertised. When I'm recording or playing live, I don't give a rat's ass if people can read my Gibson logo, I care if I'm in tune. And it can be removed with zero harm done to the instrument. JMHO Cheers!

But if you really need that, how the guitar les paul players in all these years could stay in tune for an entire show?

Right. Because some people know how to maintain their instruments. Other people just have an irrational hate for Gibson guitars.
