With three models specifically designed for steel or nylon strung acoustic or electric guitars, basses, ukuleles, mandolins, violins and violas, the D’Andrea String Cleaner, with its hinged book design, allows just the right amount of pressure for the snag-free micro-fibre pads to completely engulf all string sizes a full 360 degrees, cleaning all strings simultaneously.
Whist most serious guitar players will, with all good intensions, wipe the surface of their guitar strings after a hot gig, studio session or rehearsal, residue can still remain on the underside of the strings, on the frets and fingerboard.
Sliding the String Cleaner from nut to bridge cleans all strings, removing harmful corrosive materials like oils and sweat, extending string longevity, preserving tone, sustain and tuning stability. The bevelled edged underside, allows the cleaner to transit smoothly along the fingerboard, whilst the bass guitar model with extended pads, will also clean the fingerboard during the string cleaning action.
String Cleaner also offers a model specifically designed to fit stringed orchestral instruments with concave fingerboards, violins and violas for example, where again, the washable micro-fibre pads remove harmful substances and rosin build up on strings, whilst also polishing the fingerboard.
Arguably the most important accessory for professional musicians on the circuit, guitar techs, session players and students, the pocket-size D’Andrea String Cleaner models are designed for long-term low maintenance use, revitalising used strings whilst extended the life of newly installed sets.
