How to restring a classical guitar

This video shows my preferred method for restringing a classical guitar. I'm using D'Addario Pro Arté Classical Guitar EJ45 Normal Tension Silverplated Wound Clear Nylon strings.

Note: I loop the three higher pitched strings (1st, 2nd, 3rd) three times rather than two times on the bridge. At the head, it's similar as in the video, except flipped in the right-left direction. At 3:28, I crossed the string to the right, then the left. So for the three higher pitched strings, go left then right. It should be easy to figure out.

Never knew changing my strings could be such a relaxing and mystical experience, but this music man..

I play guitar since over 30 years and felt like a total moron trying to restring my gf old classical guitar. Your video saved me from absolute embarrassment. Thank you.

This is an excellent classical guitar re-stringing video for a few reasons: 1) soundtrack is soothing and engaging 2) video angles are correct and 3) illustration of how the string is threaded is so apparent that anyone can do it. Thx a ton!

Informative and helpful video. Also, oddly creepy.

Just want to leave a simple "Thank you" for the time and effort involved in creating this brilliantly minimalistic instruction on how to change these strings, which appears to be so daunting. You have shown that it is not so difficult, after all. THANK YOU!

Can't help but wonder why an electric blues guitar track is the backdrop to this classical guitar restring tutorial...

[arranger]

I have played guitar off and on for several years. After about a 15 year hiatus, I have recently picked it up again. I'm a little embarrassed to admit, but I've never changed my own strings. I always found a friend or paid someone at a music store to do it. The task intimidated me. I thought I would break the strings or not do it correctly. Thank you for making such a cool video. The close-ups and slow, careful speed of it were most helpful! And finally, I changed my own strings. :)

Thank you very much! A clear, complete way of showing how to do it, with no half-drunk sounding narrator who drags it out for 15 minutes! My trash-picked guitar has life again!

Instructions unclear my guitar turned into a xylophone

You can change them as soon as you notice any change in the sound. It may depend on how much you play. Also, the silverplated nylon strings do change color a bit after a while.

As most classical guitarists would say, this tutorial is "on fleek!!!" Excellent video. THANK YOU MUCH!!!!

I am a senior citizen teaching myself guitar. Thank you creating such God-inspired video. This is my first time stringing a guitar alone. Bless you.
