Don't clip the old strings. Take your time and and save them if you can, in case of emergency, because bass strings aren't cheap. Only change one string at a time to maintain tension on the neck, unless you're cleaning the fretboard. Take the end of the string not just up two pegs, but at least 4-5" past the tuner, crimp, then snip just behind the crimp. Finally, Fender if you have a bunch of extra 9050M 55-105 flats you want to get rid of, I'd gladly take them!

I remember years ago when I first started learning bass guitar I had zero money to buy a new set and my strings were dead as dead can be 💀 So I followed a friend’s advice and boiled my bass strings in my mother’s soup pot and it worked a treat! Brightened them up like new, only problem is, my mother wasn’t so impressed because all the red fabric and the muck was all stuck where the water mark was and so cleaning it was a complete nightmare haha took me ages scrubbing the whole thing! Lol 😂😅 Ahhh the good old days! Another time I boiled them for a second time because I was penniless and to my horror when I tried to put the strings back on my bass they just disintegrated when I tried to attach them to the machine heads! That was a very bad day indeed 😱😵😩😖I was playing an old Westone Thunder bass and I really wanted to play fretless bass so I rember going to great lengths to knock out every single fret sitting on the back step outside my mum’s house with a hammer and God knows what else 😂🤣 I basically wrecked the thing, plus the neck was badly warped anyway with an action so high you could have driven a double decker bus under it. So sadly the bass gave up the ghost 👻💀 so yeah talk about mega fails😂

Hey tip for y'all: Don't cut the strings and replace them at the same time. This can alter your truss rod (a device which balances and keeps the neck straight). When a truss rod is altered, it can bend your guitar/bass neck in response to the tension of the strings... This can affect your guitar/bass in every way... To avoid this, cut the strings and replace them ONE at a time. And watch a more reliable tutorial other than Fender. Seriously, trust me...

totally agree. every time you remove or loosen the strings completely and then reapply tension it puts stress on the neck joint and the integrity of the neck screws. taking them off all together at once is an unnecessary shock to the system. replace one at a time.

Two things: you don't need to measure a string against the machine heads before cutting - simply measure it against the string you took off and cut it to the same length. Secondly, don't take all the strings off at once as this will likely have an effect on the tension of the truss rod. It's best to replace them one by one, that way you still have three other strings keeping the rod to more or less the same tension as it was under to begin with.
@Cainny Жыл бұрын

@PEACEinYESHUA-oj7vc1pk7w Жыл бұрын
Well that’s one way of measuring strings but when you remove the old strings it’s difficult to straighten them out again because they are pretty much bent into the shape of the machine head. Also it’s good to clean the fretboard thoroughly and I like to add some lemon oil and work it in to the fingerboard and it is important to clean off the residue before you put the new strings on because you don’t want that all over your new strings. People do say it’s best to change the strings one at a time, it will certainly keep the neck from moving too much. But it shouldn’t damage the neck to remove the strings to give it a good clean. Guitar luthiers remove them all the time and on some older guitars you have to remove the neck to reach the truss rod. The amount of pull the strings place on the neck of your guitar or bass guitar will quickly pull it back into place no problem.

Question: should you pre-stretch the strings a couple of times after tuning to pitch (then rinse, repeat with tuning and stretching)? I've heard this helps new strings stay in tune faster on guitars, and was wondering if the same can be applied for new bass strings.
@boimesa81902 жыл бұрын
Yes press down on the strings at all the angles
@PEACEinYESHUA-oj7vc1pk7w Жыл бұрын
I usually give them a little tug before they are fully tightened and tuned up, I find it pulls the string tight into position and when I do that it loosens the string a bit and I can then tune it without it slipping constantly. I also press as well just after where the fingerboard meets the body. If it’s an acoustic guitar quite often during a restring it can pop from under the bridge pin because of the ball end not being properly in place. Then the whole string is hanging pretty loose so I pull each string to get the ball end in place at the bridge pin so tuning it is quicker and less annoying. And I do the same with the acoustic guitar and press down when each string is still relatively loose just after the fingerboard join. That’s just what works for me. I don’t think you need to physically stretch the strings though. I would be concerned about ruining them. Everyone is different though

I cut the strings at about 1.5 - 2 machineheads like said, but then when I had to tune the bass I figured the strings were too short and didn't need to be cut in the first place. The strings snapped upon tightening and were completely wasted. Other than that, helpful video but I'd advise against cutting the strings as short as suggested.
@thepoofication7 жыл бұрын
You got something wrong buddy. There is no way a string will break because it isn't it's full lenght. You most likely just overdid the tightening and broke it. What I also heard on a lot of places on the internet and I also do it is that you make a 90 degree angle and cut a bit after that. That helps the core to stay more tight with the strings. But that cannot make you string snap upon tightening - you either overdid it or there was a factory flaw. P.S. watch some more string tutorials, this guy missed out on a lot of information that I've seen from other professionals.

Hey I restrung my bass today and without really thinking about it I fanned the strings out at the head; in other words where I should’ve gone clockwise I went counterclockwise and vice versa. Is that bad? Will that do anything to the nut? Just wondering if I should bother to restring it or if it doesn’t really matter

Should start with the thinnest string, but that's more to preference.

I usually hate the look of any guitar with a pick guard but that’s a nice looking bass.

you left out the only part I needed to know lol. How to space the strings correctly at the bridge, given the drum grooves (not sure what those things are called) and their adjustments? Mine keep pushing up against each other no matter what I try, and then there’s always two strings that are too far away from each other. There’s way more to putting strings on a bass than threading though holes and tightening them up

I never change all of my strings at once. I made the experience that the D and especially the G string do not wear off as quickly as the A and the E string. So, where I change 3 times my thick strings, I only change the slim strings 2 times. (Shouldn't do that before a gig, but 6 weeks before are perfect.

I have a Bass String winder which makes restringing a snap.
