Hey Marty! I have a question... I was taught to make a half rotation with the string around the peg and pull it up between the peg and the string. When you toiiighten it (lol), it "locks" the string in to help prevent slipping. It is the right way? Is it a personal preference thing? Just curious because you didn't mention it at all. It seems to be working for me since I've been doing it for years. But I'm just wondering 🤔 GREAT vids by the way! Thanks for all your tips! ✌

Another tip: After you remove the old strings, line the tuners up so the holes are parallel to the neck. Makes it easier to thread the strings through the tuners by making them easier to access as you go along.

The few times I have tried I screwed it up royally. End up cutting them too short or too long, bent strings and very bad wind on the spool ! And then I have to buy a whole new package because i screwed up one or two strings! Thanx

My tried and trusted method has always been to measure out the string and add around another inch / inch and half to it. I then pull the string backwards through the hole an inch / inch and a half and use that slack to do a ‘wrap around’ the tuning machine. I then begin to wind it to tension. It gives a good solid hold and I’ve never had any issues in all the years I’ve been doing it

I always wash my hands before I touch new strings. Also, Tip #6a: On Gibsons I wind the strings above, not below the previous wind to reduce the angle from the nut to the headstock. This helps the guitar stay in tune over time.

I went to deep clean it and I took the top plate up which I had to like unscrew all 12-13 screws and I messed up the springs that the humbuckers sat on when I took the top plate off. So now every time I flip my guitar up side down to put the strings in or any time I’m holding my guitar the regular way I have to deal with the humbuckers leaning down and almost touching the strings, lol not really annoying.. super annoying😂. Honestly I came to u because well u taught me how to play guitar. and I’m hoping u have experience with this because I have no clue. Hope u see this comment!

I use Dunlop lemon oil on my rosewood fretboards (ES-339, Tele Deluxe) every 2 string changes. Shouldn't that be enough to hydrate it? I don't want to ruin my fretboard by putting too many chems on it. On my maple fretboard (American Strat), I just clean it with a damp cloth & dry it. I only dust my guitars' painted surfaces, pickups & head. I put 'Nut Sauce' on the nut on every string change. There's such thing as too much, so I'm not sure how many products I need to buy.
