fter changing strings, use your thumbs and forefingers to gently stretch each
string across its entire length. Tune the string to pitch and repeat the stretch-
ing procedure two or three times.

Loop the string under itself a second time.

Make sure the free end passes under the string below
the corner of the bridge when you pull it tight. It will come
loose if you don’t keep one end below the corner.

As with the other strings, stick the high-E string
through the hole in the tuner, then lock, tighten, and snip,
as in Steps 6-9.
18.
After tuning to pitch, snip the excess from the
B and high-E strings.
