Locking tuners won't make downtuning any faster, but sure make changing strings a bit faster. I've got them on my strat, and love them. It rarely goes out of tune.

I'm really killing myself then. I have locking tuners on two guitars and I lock them down, but then still wrap. I use the locking tuner to keep the string from slipping when I am wrapping. **shrug** -------------------- Youtube

My LP has locking tuners, cant say i notice that it stays in tune any better than my other guitars, once the strings are starting to stretch it still goes out, and I still wrap too, I watched a Danny Gatton dvd and he said "Always wrap as much string as possible" if he says its the thing to do, thats reason enough for me! Yeah, Danny has a point, more wraps do help with staying in tune but you need to be aware of how you warp as well, not just how much. If you warp sloppy with lots of overlapping it might causes you troubles. -------------------- Youtube

Then I guess it's not how many wraps you do, but HOW you wrap them... I guess it's about how AND how many... -------------------- Youtube
