Tighten the string while winding it around
the post. This avoids string slippage and

2 - 4 winding around the post are ideal
for good tuning and stability.
The tuner’s post has a slot with a hole in
the center. Put the string in that hole
before you start winding. This system
avoids the string poking out to the side
of the tuner and stabilizes the winding,
giving the bass better tuning overall.
Place the string’s ball end on the bridge
string holder. Hold the ball end down
with one hand and with the other feed
the string to the tuner.

excess length for the windings around
the tuner’s post.
