Learn to restring yourself. A guitar player should know how to restring a guitar. What if your guitar string broke on stage? You are not going to bring it to a guitar tech right?

You can get your guitar restring in any guitar shop. Davis, Beez, Guitar Connection, Maestro, Swee Lee, Ranking, Blackwood, Music Theme, Guitar 77... I hope this answer your question. You can get a tuner from Standard Value http://standardvalue.com.sg/store/in...ewCat&catId=28

By the way I think Mike don't charge that high ($30) for restringing service who is a simple job imo. Yoiu can see more tuners here http://standardvalue.com.sg/store/in...ewCat&catId=27
