I've been playing for about 17 years, only seriously maybe the first year or two and the last two and I've put new strings on several times. I still always watch this video before each time, very simple, very calming for some reason to me.

I have a question, if you don't necessarily have a nut file handy would a small piece of sand papper do the trick for a small adjustment?​@ntunemusicandsound

First time ever re-stringing my bass, I've had it for about a year now, and I needed to polish the fretboard, meaning I wanted to switch out the strings too. This video actually helped out a lot even though I accidentally cut my lower E string too short. At least I got the rest of 'em on there though, and hopefully when I call Ernie Ball tomorrow, they'll be able to send me a replacement E string, and if not I can just buy a new pack of strings, it's no biggie

Changing bass strings to diff gauge--Tune Bass and let sit for 2 hours---after 2 hour write down how many cents the turning is off.--if the tuning is high (sharp) turn truss rod CW 1/8 and re-tune--if the tuning is flat turn truss rod CCW 1/8 keep checking the tuning until the strings and truss rod are in balance-DR KEL i

Thanks for your very informative video. So 5 inches of string past the post will work on all basses will work for winding or will it start to overlap when winding the string on the post?

As long as the windings go underneath each other, and make sure it's only one layer of windings!!, I repair and set up a lot of guitars and I also deal with a lot of overlapped strings on the machine head, that's something nobody wants because it makes it weaker and it'll start to rattle, honestly sick and tired of telling my clients how to put on the strings because they keep bringing in their "axes" and complaining how the guitar rattles, immediately I look at the tuning peg and sure enough, their overlapping. So just make sure they wind underneath each other but not too much, hope this helps you of somewhat, ✌😉

While I’m changing my strings they are hugging the fretboard no matter how tight they are, the action was fine with the strings it used to have.

I was told that you should replace one string at a time so that the tension on the neck isn't totally released. Is this true or a myth??

After putting the strings on, you need to stretch them and re-tune a few times.

The Ernie Ball strings are still a favorite among bass players. As for the gauge, we recommend the Super Slinky. Good luck with your new bass purchase.
