How to string your own guitar!
Oh no, it happened, you knew this dreadful day would come. You broke a string! What are you going to do? Go to Guitar Center and pay to have your one string replaced? Changing the strings of a guitar is much simpler than it looks and is an invaluable to skill to have as a guitarist. No more having to drive your guitar for a repair and having to wait for the job to be complete. Fix your guitar strings right then and there and get back to playing like you were in a nascar pit crew! Learn from the guy that changes the strings on every guitar in the school multiple times a month!
What to Expect:
Bring your guitar and we'll supply you with a pack of strings included in the fee! Although helpful, no fancy tools are necessary to change strings (some guitarists like Tom Morello from Rage Against the Machine, wouldn't even cut off the ends of the strings)! While you will learn a general method for changing strings, some guitars (with locking Floyd Rose tremolo systems or headless construction) may differ slightly.
