🤔 When to Change Your Classical Guitar Strings?
Don't wait until they break! We'll show you the tell-tale signs that it's time for a change, such as:

A notably poor or dull sound (loss of brightness and projection).
The guitar not staying in tune (especially the G, B, and high E strings).
Visible damage, corrosion, or flattened/frayed windings on the lower strings.

⚠️ Choosing the Right Strings (Crucial Advice!)
Only use nylon strings on a classical guitar! Using steel strings can cause irreversible damage to the neck, bridge, and bracing due to the massive increase in tension.

We'll show you the best recommended nylon strings for a classical guitar and explain the difference between the tied end (bridge) and the wound end (tuning peg).

🎬 Step-by-Step Classical String Change Process:
1) Loosen Strings (Unwind the tension safely).
2) Cut Off Old Strings (Proper and safe removal technique).
3) Confirm String Order (Make sure you know where each string goes!).
4) Tie the Bottom End (The correct knot for the bridge tie-block).
5) Loop and Wind the Top End (The proper way to secure the string to the tuning peg).
6) Trim the Ends (Cleaning up the look and removing excess string).
7) Tune, Tune, Tune

✅ Important Note on New Strings (The Break-In Period)
After tuning, you'll notice the guitar may go out of tune very easily for the first few days. This is normal as the new nylon strings are initially stretching. Check out my follow-up video for tips on how to properly stretch and break in your new strings to speed up the process:
