Thank you! I'm doing the first string change on my new Charvel, so this was a great help to me.

I have the Floyd version of this guitar from you guys. It’s an excellent shred beast.

I think for 3+3 headstocks, the rule would be 5, 4, 3, 9 ,10 ,11. Basically mirroring the clock on the right side.

[@ridingblues]

Good work! You have a good head on your shoulders

[@Rambo29]

good upload +3 can you take the string through the tuning post first, string it and then tighten the tuner?

[@michaelandrewgarcia96]

Hi. Is the 543321 method same for reverse headstock?

[@Blackdog4818]

When you tighten the string down, isn't there a problem with grip on the string? Seems like if you bent a string hard, it might slip?

Watching having to go thru the back makes me love my wrap around bridge even more. Playing an Epiphone Les Paul Junior with Ernie Ball Slinky 11-48 stainless steel strings. Good watch for when i can order my locking tuner. Slowly modifying my LP Jr one part at a time
