does it really give them their life back?
i herd that it sometimes ruins the tone of the strings or what ever
i was thinking aobut trying it but why not ask people who know more about it?
so yeah, does it work?

My dad always claimed it work, but why bother now when strings are so cheap? I buy my favs for less than $3 a set from music123.

It seems more reasonable for a bass player to do this. Those strings are pricey.

I know a bassist who told me to do that. He swore that it always worked for his bass strings, but when I tried it on my guitar strings it just didn't work. So I think it will work on bass strings fine but if you're a guitarist don't bother.

Neither could I, until I met navy... I rarely break one of my extra light guitar strings, but he snaps bass strings at regular intervals... I think somebody just needs to chillax a little when he play...
