Changing guitar strings is one of the most difficult things to do in the whole wide world. You need to bring the guitar to Scientists in Europe and Skopje just too properly replaces it or else is at risk. This is the same with un-arming a nuclear bomb and should not be done by ordinary people like you.

Of course, I am only joking.

Kidding aside, replacing your guitar strings is an essential skill to learn since you would have the need to replace it once in a while (every week in my case because I have an acidic sweat or whatever they call It.) and you can’t always trust this to your guitar tech or somebody else. Knowing how to replace your string first hand is something that you should learn by yourself and should be done by yourself too.

First, observe the guitar. Observe which direction you should turn the tuning pegs to tighten or loosen it your guitar strings. Check the alignment of the string from the nut up to the bridge and determine which the thickest guitar string is. Now, have the following tools ready: pliers, string winder, soft cotton cloth and guitar cleaning polish.

Use the string winder to loosen up the string. Then remove it using the pliers. That’s it. It is also important to remove the strings one by one because removing it at the same time might cause problems on the neck of your guitar. Place the strings using the reversed process of removing it.
