Learning to find a guitar is an important skill for all guitarists.

You don't want to have to get your guitar from a store or change a friend if a cord breaks - or if these old strings need to change.

When and why you have to change your ropes

When and why they change their strings depends on a number of factors, including

• How many times do you play
• How long do you play when you play
• The way you play
• The environment in which you play
• If your hands are clean while playing
• The type of strings you play

Take a look at the link below when you want to know more about why and how often you should change your strings.

• How often I should exchange my guitar strings

Now we are involved in the process of rope change.

The process of changing the guitar cord

The following steps describe the change of all strings to your guitar.If you need to change only one, the process is still the same - but of course you will do it for one of the strings.

Configure on a table or a bank.Positioning table for more access (see the figure above).

Step 1: Collect the tools you need

Everything you need isGitarren -setup -ToolsWith special guitar string tools:

• Streichwinger (opcional)
• Cable cutters (or something more than cuts your strings)
• A sentence of your favorite strings (Check out T.his sideIf you are not sure which strings you like)

This is for step 1!

Step 2: Remove existing strings

The first thing you need to do if you have your tools is to remove the old strings from the guitar.

And I examined how some of the most important acoustic guitar manufacturers change their strings, and they also say there is no problem removing all strings at the same time.(Possibly to adjust the semi -timbered streets) - But just to have a problem although restricting yourself is not a problem.

And if you can restrict everything at the same time, you can alsoClean your guitar and armAt the same time (although this is not necessary every time you change your strings).

If you have a lower session? It is recommended that you loosen each sequence a little to publish the voltage in the seal evenly.Solve a little to change and, a little, the signal to a little and so on and repeat the process until all the strings are loose.Take it - just to be safe.

To remove the strings:

1. Decompô -The for disassembly -The.

2. As soon as the strings are beautiful and loose, put the pencil from the bridge of your holes should be quite simple now, because the tension is out of the strings.To carefully remove the pencils from the bridge if they can't take them manually.Integrated tools to remove the busy bridge (and sometimes also installed in the wire cut).

3. Pull the strings out of the holes in the bridge

4. Return to the shaft rod and finish the strings of the machine heads and pull the end of the cord through the hole.

Some people loosen the strings and then cut the strings before removing the pencils from the bridge, but it seems to me an unnecessary step.

Another way to do this is to completely disassemble the rope and first remove the pencil from the bridge at the end of the shaft stick, and that's okay too.

NB: NEVERPull your rope until it grabs to remove it.This is not only dangerous, but it will also be very bad for the neck and her guitar bridge.This may seem obvious to most, but I saw it, how people do it!

Step 3: Put the new strings

Now that the guitar is without a rope, we want to put the new strings.First of all, I take the low strings of the rope packs.The most string manufacturers will have a way to determine which string is.In individual packages or the end of the ball is colored.

First, we use the strings at the end of the bridge:

I like to easily put all the pencils on the bridge on their slots - this way they are all there when I need them and I don't need to look for them when I see the strings.

1. Place the end of the low e-cord ball in the hole in the bridge where the bass and should go (the first hole).

2. Replace the bridge pencil.The bridge pencil usually has a slot grooves in which the cord is so that the pen is placed so that the rope is in this slot groove.

3. Before pressing the bridge pencil, try to ensure that the rope is so that the hole at the end of the ball is more aligned than up (see the image) - the rope is better.

4. Keep the pencil from the bridge and pull the wire up to remove any gap

5. Now repeat the process for the rest of the strings

If you prefer, you can hold a rope at the end of the bridge and then connect it to the population of the head.I prefer to do everyone at one end and then the other extreme, but what you find easier.

Now let's annex it at the end of the shaft stick:

There are several different techniques with which the string can be connected to the head of the machine.The technology shown here is that used by Martin guitars.

I tend to start with the rope and tall, but whatever you find the easiest is? Ok (although it is probably the easiest with tall and so you can work outside).

1. Assign the heads of the machine so that the holes in which the strings pass are directed on the guitar toward the neck.

2. Put the cord in the hole

3. So that the cord can hold a thumb width out of the neck, the thumb on the triple side of the neck (in the nut) to the bass strings and the bottom of the neck to the states of the height, see the image below, see

4. Wrap the cord around the inside of the head of the machine to the right and moa -under the piece of the cord that comes out of the mother

5. Keep the tension with your right hand on the rope and pull the cord with your left hand to the head of the machine and wrap the rope back in the direction you just arrived, and turn

6. Pull the two ends of the cord around the shaft stick to ensure that it is tight

7. This should lock the rope so that if you put it below the head of the machine, tight and not dismantled.

The use of this technology should ensure that their strings do not slide during the game, which makes it wrong.

Alternative Method:Another method you can use is to bring the rope beyond the head of the machine (to which the respective string enters) and you can double so that it is about 2 to 3 inches behind this head of the machine and then connectThe cord is simply through the hole and hold it and wrap it.

My only problem with this alternative method is that I am always concerned about cutting the rope very short or very long and that there is no additional protection against rope sliding, as with the other method.

Ok in the last part.

Find the cord:

1. Hold the rope with your right hand and place the rope so that it is in the right slot in the mother.
2. Put the safe walk through the right hand, but keep a little tension on it.
3. Put your mother safely so you can guide the rope from the head of the machine as you rotate the voice pen.
4. At this stage you will only engage them so that they are enough to stay in place - we will adjust them correctly later.

For the heights I would like to sit with the guitar, how would I touch me? Relax the ropes in the right direction.Follow to pull.

However, if you do this on your lap, make sure you keep the tension with your hand that does not rotate the voice pen.

Step 4: Cut the strings

• If you cut the strings, make sure to hold the end of the rope with the hand that does not cut so that the rope does not fly.
• Secure the rope as close as possible to the head of the machine so that you don't depend much so you can cut yourself

STAGE 5: ADJUSTMENT

Now there are its strings, but the guitar is not willing to play - they still need to be mounted.

Take a look at this postHow to define your guitar if you are not safe or need a summary.

Step 6: Stretch your strings

New strings come out very easily, so it's a good idea to strict them.

You can stretch your strings in two ways - the short way or the long way.

The short way

The short way is to grasp the cable directly above the sound hole and pull it up.Then repeat the rope and repeat.

Do this 2 or three times on all strings - it helps you stay in harmony earlier.

The long way

The long way is to play guitar and continue to be right as they go.This takes a while (days or even weeks, depending on the frequency and how long they play).

I find the long way frustrating, so I would recommend the short way and as far as I know it doesn't damage your guitar.

Even you ?.

Although this cannot be complicated at first, as soon as you do a few times, if you do it a few times, and at least you can practice 6 times every time you defeat the guitar!

I hope this has helped you learn to rearrange your guitar for yourself or have clarified some things for you-or have given you a new method you can try.

If you use another method, let you know how to make it in the comments below.Would you consider trying this method or keeping your way?

If you first defeat you or if you need to make it clear in one of the steps and have questions, I will be happy to answer, leave a comment below.
