  • @devildog1775907 yeah i guess that's why i have 28,282 subscribers to my channel, and you only have 2, lol!

  • attention newbies!

    although bobby method is OK, do the strings one by one, and dont take them off at once. this keeps tension on the neck, so you dont have to fiddle with your truss rod, especially if you have a higher guage than 0,10s on.

  • @devildog1775907 so if you know how to change strings then why dont you just tell her?

  • i tie my strings differently than u. my way is much faster and it looks and performs the same way and the way is to rap it around a few times first and then u put it through the hole. it is really easy and fast

  • @losKema you can but it would be extremly hard, my guitar teacher said it is alright to take all strings off,

  • @devildog1775907 Bobby crispy is great at guitar so STFU

  • good

  • @fatu6613

    and how you clean the neck or apply the products without taking all the strings off??

  • When you applied Fretboard 65, It was like the guitar neck came back to life.

  • @BobbyCrispy

    Eh, I'll stick to the safe route regardless ;X

    Everyone I've talked to about this, including a guy whos been playing for some 40 odd years says one at a time, but everyones different :D

  • @PaCo12349 actually i've been taking all the strings off my guitars since i first started playing guitar, so that's 26 years, and i've never had a problem with the truss rod or the neck! all my guitars are still in perfect intonation, and no neck problems!

  • I just gotta say that devildog has a point, you don't want to take off all the strings... you're gonna wanna keep tension on the neck of the guitar lest it eventually causes adequate damage.
