Hellfire Retractor Set – String Spreaders

A fantastic tool set that makes fretboard work and maintenance a breeze.

Made from the highest quality brass and designed to fit behind the neck and hold the strings away from the fretboard for easy access.   Our brass spreaders are strong enough to hold the strings back but (unlike steel) they can be carefully molded to match different neck profiles.

Each Retractor has a rubber coating to protect the neck when in use


The Hellfire Retractor pickup spreader is a tool you can use on your guitar bridge that serves two purposes.  Firstly, if you loosen the guitar strings enough you can gain access easily to the pickups (for cleaning and maintenance).  Secondly, when used in conjunction with the full set you can clear the strings totally away from your guitar neck to aid cleaning and repair.

Hellfire Retractor Evil Twin Pack contains 1 Standard String Spreader and 1 Small String Spreader.

Hellfire Retractor Unholy Trinity Pack contains the above spreaders but also includes our new Pickup Spreader which aids in providing full access to the fretboard and further access to the pickup area.
