Simple ergonomically designed product!
This thing is great! If you don’t already have one of these, I suggest trying one out. I would say the best thing is no liquid solutions are needed to clean the strings. It is a lot less hassle than trying to wrap and use a traditional cloth around your strings to clean them. It clamps over your strings, and cleans not only the top side of your strings, but the underside as well.
