Changing Your Strings
Following the path of the string you just removed, insert the plain end of a new string through the hole
in the bridge and thread across the string saddle, up the fingerboard, across the nut, through the string
guide (if one is provided), and into the small hole in the corresponding machine head tuning post. (The
ball end of the string will secure the string to the bridge.) At the headstock, allow - inches of string
beyond the post for turning around the machine head post, then cut the excess string. Insert the freshly
cut string end into the hole in the center of the tuning post. Then, bend the string at a right angle at the
edge of the slot and begin winding the string onto the post. Note that the string path should be straight,
running from the fretboard, over the nut, through the string guides (if provided), to the post—without
angling off. To avoid slippage, wind strings tightly from top to bottom on each post, completing -
wraps around each post. Keep light pressure on the string with the fingers of your other hand while
tightening the string using the tuners. (An inexpensive peg winder makes winding much easier.) Tune
to pitch. Because new strings are prone to stretch when first installed, you should gently stretch each
string by pulling it away from the neck and retune again.
