ABSTRACT:
A string arrangement for attachment to a conventional stringed instrument comprises a substantially conventional string which is carried upon a reel member surrounded by a cover member with the string passing through an opening in the cover member. The reel member carries a sleeve portion which can be pressed over the conventional peg of a guitar or other instrument and can be attached thereto for rotation by a pin passing through the transverse conventional hole of the peg. In this way the string can be readily applied by attaching the free end to the base of the guitar in conventional manner and unreeling the string to a position where the reel member attaches to the conventional peg with little slack in the string. Rotation of the conventional string tensioning key then operates directly upon the reel member to wind in the string onto the reel member and to provide the necessary tensioning of the string.
