Revolutionizing the Way You Change Your Strings. String-Ties a remarkable new guitar accessory. Not only does String-Tie make changing strings easier than ever, it may actually improve the musical tone of a strummed or plucked guitar. What is STRING TIE? String Tie is made of Galalith (milk stone), a chemical free, natural polymer derived from milk. Each set contains 4 amber-colored beads, one per string. Follow the 6 easy step instruction diagram on the back and there you go you have changed strings in minimum time and effort, plus, your guitar bridge looks nice and clean. The main advantage of String Tie is strictly a professional matter: a standard knot creates a certain angle between the bridge and the nut. The String Tie makes a more acute angle and thus enhances the tension on the nut. This results in a sound which is significantly more affected by the guitar's sound board. Another case in which String Tie is extremely helpful is when players want to reduce action (i.e. the gap between the strings and the neck). The common way to do it is by lowering the nut. In some cases, this broadens the angle between the knot and the nut which may cause various problems. By using String Tie, an acute angle is maintained.

I installed these on one of my classical guitars with a cedar top and noticed a noticeable difference in the volume output and projection of the instrument. It was louder and projected better. These beads also help protect the bridge and surrounding area of th top from string scars.On the other hand, because it applies a stronger pulling force on the bridge because of the sharper string break angle, it should be used with caution on older instruments to avoid top deformation.

This IS a quality product and an improved idea compared to laborous, traditional string-tying over the bridge. A bit over-priced, but overall helpful and makes re-stringing easier and faster. Be careful not to leave any short ends of cut strings exposed that could scratch or cut under your forearm... I have rotated the beads to leave string cut ends less exposed and I am still analyzing to figure out a better system for concealing the (potentially sharp) string cut ends. I think I just about have it figured out (feed string back through one of the holes) and needs to be done BEFORE you cut off excess string and tune-up with tension on the strings. All said, seems to make a challenging tie-off process easier and I would repurchase.

These worked 100% of the time on all string sizes, easy to use, look cool.I have tried a cheaper version of these and the string slipped out during Tunning.Spend a little more and be happy the first time.

Worked as it should. I was skeptical at first, but they are holding up just fine and keeping the strings in tune

These are great for making stringing easier, reduces the denting on the bridge and is less visually busy. Have tried another and thinner strings can slip. So far these haven’t. Gold logo is a little distracting, but I understand it’s about branding. Sort of expensive, but a one time cost. Very clean look.

Very functional and easy mod for nylon string guitars. It really does increase the break angle over the saddle. This increases volume and clarity. The blocks also reduce, but do not eliminate the chance of string ends marring the finish behind the bridge.You need to be careful when you tie the strings, set the blocks, and trim the string end. I found that running the bridge string end through the front end of the bridge hole and then using the slack string to tie the block away from the guitar top prior to pulling up the slack and running the other end of the string through the tuner works well. Then you can tighten up the string and set the position of the block as the string tightens. I am able to set the blocks in an even and horizontal manner, hovering just above the sound board once everything is in place and tightened up.They look pretty good and are easy to tie, or loop through the block per the diagram that comes with the set of 6 blocks. I now have them on both of my medium grade classical guitars.

This is an awesome product, It cuts my string-changing time in 1/2! This product really does add a little more responsiveness to the solid-cedar top of my Classical Guitar (Takamine C132S). Of course, I know how to tie the knot with nylon (or carbon) strings at the bridge, and...why. These String-Ties presents a nice uniform appearance, make my guitar top noticeable more responsive and allow me time to spend that critical 45 minutes getting the strings stretched and up to pitch instead of chewing up my fingernails tieing the strings. I was first introduced to this product @ Strings by Mail. I do love SBM, yet I can get this product faster & cheaper through Amazon (Prime)

Great innovation that is useful and worth the cost. These ties greatly simplify and speed up the string changing process. They also look nice. I did not notice any change in the guitar's sound. These ties eliminate the difficulties in installing the bass strings plus I no longer need to melt the tips of the treble strings since they cannot slip when properly in the string tie. These string ties will help motivate me to change strings more often!I think these ties should also be a benefit to classical guitars that have a low saddle and very little break-over angle. In this case an improvement in sound may be realized.
