Don't we thread the thin strings through the hole again?? The string should be passed through the hole, bent back around . then through the hole again and pulled tight. If you do a lot of string bending like I do your ax will never hold tune. My new Carvin came with these neat string locks you screw from the back--I'm never out of tune now!

this is only for regular tuners...lol....i have a prs, with locking tuners. you put on strings a different way on locking tuners. you dont have to wrap the string around at all with them. its a lot easier

I never use wirecutters.. just bed the string back and forth until it breaks, it's cleaner that way anyway
. last time I used wirecutters,.. the wirecutters scratched the freaking guitar!

Then don't cut the string until you release it enough.

Wirecutters are* more clean... It's true they are, except they can scratch your guitar.. you should try my method, it works pretty well.

they can scratch your guitar if you don't use it properly. Well, anyways nice method .. when you don't have any Wire cutter... =)
God Bless!
