Pull the string up over the nut towards the headstock and feed it through the hole in the tuning machine capstan,
(Figure 9) Bring the string back and over the capstan, loop it under itself, and pull it so that it is heading in toward the
end of the headstock, (Figure 10). While holding the string in place with your right hand, begin winding the button to
remove the slack in the string. Continue winding to form a neat coil with the initial wrap at the inside of the coil. Do not
overlap the winds.
Finally, tune the string to the appropriate pitch. Pull up gently at the center point of the string to stretch it. Retune, and
repeat, until unwanted slack is eliminated and the tuning of the strings is stabilized.
To string a classical/nylon string guitar with “ball-end” classical strings, simply feed the string through the appropriate
hole in the bridge; pull the string up over the nut towards the headstock, then wind the string onto the tuning machine
capstan using the same instructions for “tie-on” strings (see Figures 9 and 10).
Please Note: Never cut a string to length before putting it on your guitar and tuning it to pitch. Premature cutting may
cause the string to unwrap and become useless. Install the string rst, and then clip the excess near the post/capstan.
