@Hartzil I cut the strings because after I cut them, I tak them and bend them away from the body of the guitar. This way, you don't have loose strings flopping around on the surface. I know a lot of people don't do it, but that's my reason.

[guitar2ner]

@S3aCa1mRa1n You don't have to use a string winder. You can use your finger. Some people use wire cutters underneath the pegs to pull them out. I used to do this. DON'T do it. It will leave grooves on your pegs. So the peg remover on the string winder is helpful. You have to watch on some cheapo ones though because often times the plastic will be too thick to fit under the peg.

ah! i can't get the peg up! i don't have that thing you used, do i use my fingers?

[guitar2ner]

@SmartAmerican1 If you loosen the other strings and can fit your arm in the sound hole, GENTLY push the stuck peg up with your finger. It may help to wiggle the bottom of the peg on the inside as well.

This was a great demo. Thank you Quentin Tarantino for taking the time out of your busy schedule to do this.

[guitar2ner]

@schouestyr Yeah I've been told I look like Quentin before. I guess it's a compliment... Glad you liked the video. Check out the main guitar2ner site when you get a chance. There's a chord finder on there you can use to quickly find guitar chords.

i have a question.. i accidentally dropped my guitar and the strings got scratches on them.. does this mean i have to change the strings to new ones?

[djstarr1997]

Only one of my strings needs to be replaced so should I replace all of them or just that one??? Also, my guitar is acoustic and I have some "folk guitar strings". Can I use one of those strings with my existing strings or will the sound of the two strings clash?

PLZ READ THIS HELP

hi

i practice daily and keep my semi acoustic guitar in the cover for night(until i sleep) and it can extend up to morning and evening

coz i practice only in evenings

so my question is should i regularly tune and loosen the strings coz my dealer told me to do so regularly but some guys told me that you shouldnt coz its a matter of a day and you can keep the guitar tuned for days if you practice daily

so someone PLZ TELL ME SHOULD I TUNE DAILY AND LOOSEN THE STRINGS?or not?

[Pipposk88]

He forgot to mention one important thing.. before and during the tuning you have to stretch the strings!
