The guitarist in my last band does a similar thing with his SG (not quite as violently though)
I must admit to being slightly peturbed by that video.

This is each to there own really,every time i put a set of strings on a bass weather new or just replacing them after cleaning a fingerboard ,i put them on tune them up, stretch them, tune them up ,stretch them and tune them up ,until theyre stable.I really dont think you need to be this aggresive ,but it is important to stretch the string so the tuning becomes stable.Just putting a set of strings on without stretching youll find they soon go out of tune.Use a tuner though!!!!much more accurate.

Lol I am inclined to agree. Some of the comments are pretty funny, he got dissed big time.

If his strings go out of tune that much without a gentle stretch then he needs new strings, a new tuner or a kicking.

I would hate to see someone try this with heavy gauge strings or the rotosound rs77 monel flats , ouch

Yeah, we were slightly shocked when this was posted on BW.

Laughed quite alot too.

that's pretty much what I do with new strings, don't see the harm really, my bass doesn't go out of tune..
