I am in Australia and am wanting to buy my first Electric Stringing Machine. Not interested in a crank or drop weight machine. I have used a Gamma Progression ELS II extensively so leaning that way but wanted opinions on my other options
1. Gamma Progression ELS II
Price $2250 AUD
Pros
Have used this machine often over the last few years so familiar with it
Seems like a reliable brand
2 year warranty
Cons
No auto base clamps
2. AEF Elec 8 Pro
Price $2000 AUD
Pros
Auto Base Clamps standard
Bit cheaper than the Gamma
Cons
1 year warranty
Relatively unknown brand so not sure if there will be support if something breaks
3. Spinfire Flame with WISE Tension Head
Price $2000 or $2300 with Auto Base clamps AUD
Pros
Plenty of good reviews for this machine
Can easily replace tension head if any issues
2 year warranty
Cons
Most expensive when fitted with auto clamps
Need a spacer to get 360 degree turntable.
Look forward to hearing peoples opinions.
