@CDI647 you could, but it's not necessary. If you use it after each playing, you shouldn't need any solution (especially if you use it in conjunction with new strings. then there will be no build up)
@JacobGeorge2011 Doesn't do so well with rust, more the gunk that causes it. It's best used to prevent major build up. If you put on a new set of strings, and use it after each playing, you'll get much longer life out of them
wow. i thought a 5 min video for a string cleaner would be boring, but it actually kept my attention. sounds cheesy, but who knew a string cleaner could be that complex?
After watching this video i went straight out and bought 1 its a good product, the only thing i would say to make it alot better is if it had micro fibre on the bottom that runs along the fretboard rather that just plastic it would also clean the frets strings in 1.the plastic feels a little harsh on the frets.
I just got one of these not too long ago and it really works. I've had the same strings on since March if that says anything (the strings are D'Addario, so that probably helps too).
Vital tool for any gutiarist.
And you really should clean it if you use it with some old ass rusty strings, you'll see why hahaha.
what about the micro fibre is there any chemicals in it.. or something we can add into it for better cleaning .. or do you suggest just the fibre itself is satisfactory enough?
There are no chemicals on the micro fiber and you do not have to add any to it. It will do the work but I suggest you start with new strings when you get a new String Cleaner.
is there a UK site to purchase this? or you deliver worldwide anyways?
second question. whats your recommendation on fretboard cleaning (noob question? i dont know. just incase as im a beginner .. what about cleaning the guitar as a whole. side an backs) just need recommendations i guess or any info as im a starter
true a normaly micro fiber would but since this locks over the strings it gets good presure ontop and on the bottom of the strings to clean them better. I am getting one a friend of mine uses it and it does help. Some people play their guitar 2-3 hours a day like me and after a practice like that your strings are dirty I have to change strings 2 times a month. And this will help me change that I hope.
I wanted to order one of your string cleaners but the website I went to was not working right, however I bought a bottle of stringtreat, and I will try your website again tomoro ,,,cheers
To prove it works I saw all the dirt on my string cleaner pads gather more and more each time.

Wished you had one string cleaner for violins. The rosin stuck on the strings is a pain.
