Stringing a Classical Guitar

[riizmjx]

After scrolling through several annoying videos on restringing the classical guitar, I stopped looking after viewing this one. The speaking style is slow and relaxed enough (without all the macho "guitar lingo"), so one can actually follow what's being explained. Following these nicely explained instructions, I know I can easily and correctly restring my guitar--no stress! Thank you for sharing your expertise!

I've watched more than 10 videos and I had an issue with all of them but this video is flawless. Thank you!

THE most thorough, and therefore helpful, video on nylon string changing! George, you are a craftsman! I recently purchased a nylon string guitar, and I watched multiple videos yesterday…all hid the close-up knot perspectives, so I gave up in frustration. This video, from a true teacher, helps me enormously. Thank you!

This is the best video on YouTube for changing classical guitar strings - thank you SO MUCH!

Great video George! This is very different than what I learned in the 1970's. Thanks for posting!

Thanks - I used your method and it is qute consistent. I think the double twist for the tuner pegs is the very best and easiest way. It was really easy to repeat without much effort. You covered it quite well as well.

Gem of a video. Insightful and concise. Cheers!

Thanks so much for explaining in detail and showing in detail the detail work. That is what it is all about. My first restring is a success!

I am a beginner in restringing and found your site exactly what I needed. Simplicity, detail and informative. I started with another video and then found yours. It is a gem find!

Wasn't sure whether the 1st and 6th wound opposite of the rest... Also, couldn't figure out why my top string barely had any tension...followed you exactly...your 2 loops (at the roller) seem to have done the trick! Great tips!Thanks!

Of all the many videos for restringing a classical guitar, I find this one is the best. Please do a video for a 12 hole bridge. Thanks.

Fantastic video. I love the amount of pertinent technical knowledge, it's absolutely necessary but often largely lacking in so many "instructional" videos.

[bernardinowernergamonalvas]

Very good my dear friend..congratulation I like it..

I use Ball End Strings which make restringing a Snap

[ralphmackay]

Such an excellent video. The best I've seen.

Thanks for this. I've been playing a nylon string for years, and every time I restring it, I always try something new, and most methods have a lot of convoluted ties and what not. Your method appears to be very fast, easy, and effective. Going to try this tomorrow because the restring I did the other day using composite strings (which sound horrible to my ear) is not to my liking.

Great video and method! Thanks a lot, this will be my way of doing it from now on!!

[Kim-ylyg]

Thank you George, that was the best demo. I also, found the possible reason my A or D strings unravel and break at the tie bar after 3 weeks.

I use the loosely wound end at the bridge, but pull it through far enough that the loosely wound part through that the loosely wound part is not at all involved in the knot and goes away when I trim away the excess.
