  • DEAN!

  • Wouldn't it be easier to just leave the ball thingy on the string on and shove that through your tuner so you don't have to really bother doing the whole running over your string thing?

  • I think this is the best video from expertvillage. Nice job, guys.

  • Video is good but....

    What pain in the ass. Thank you Gibson for designing a perfect guitar that I don't need a half hour to replace a string. Wha'ts that silence? Oh the audience left ten minutes ago

  • fuck commercials

  • @NeverEatYell0wSn0w 255 generally means it is a 25.5 scale, with 24 frets. this only has 22, so i think its just another dime guitar(my fav guitar player)

  • hmm the lazy way looks easier

  • Shiiit dawg, Dean 255, i have that exact guitar, but emg 81/85 :P

  • this video sounds so dirty

  • thats one badass razorback

  • Very good tutorial. Lately, my Jackon's D-string decided to leave, and I had no real clue how to replace it. Thanks to your vid, it should be no problem any more!

  • i have the same kind of a locking bridge, but that lil' square piece is messing. Is there a way that i can put a string on the guitar??
