How to string your classical guitar

The Classical Guitar Tutorial for beginners


Changing The Guitar Strings



Here are the locations of the six strings and their names. The paper sheath that the strings are wrapped in say what string it is.The sixth string is the thickest and the first string is the thinnest. I will show you how to do the sixth string.
Remember we are doing the sixth (E)string here. This is the thickest string. Feed it over the bridge then though the hole and feed it though so about two inches of string is sticking out .

Take this two inches of string and curl it up over the Bridge base then tuck it under the string.
.
Insert this end under the string. Under the loop you just created. It should look like this.

Curl it around again and tuck it under again. This double loop insures it will not come loose. For the three thickest strings you do this double loop and the three thinnest strings you should triple loop.
