    Hey guys, thanks for the video! I'm a little embarrassed to say that I've been spoiled by locking tuners so when I picked up a Jazzmaster last week I knew I'd need to get a little refresher on how to restring it. This video was perfect, thorough without getting rambly or repetitive, very helpful. Thanks!!

    Thank you, this was very helpful. I've played guitar for nearly 40 years, but today was the first time having to change strings on a guitar with vintage tuners. Would have definitely messed it up without your video!

    Some advice, show more close up shots of the tech's hands and what he is doing and very few if none of all of the interviewer. This is about changing strings and not about him.

    I usually just use 2.5 tuner length on these since i don't like too much pressure over the nut.

    easiest way to stop the strings from popping out while restringing is to push the string down with a toothpick in the tuner hole while you wind it up.

    Thanks for this. Just used this technique to put a set of strings on a 2019 US Strat. Easiest string change ever. Might be doable without a winder but definitely recommend using.

    Good video. I like to have all the tuner in the same direction ie slots paralell to the strings initially. Makes it a bit easier.

    This is so confusing with the science of a fender strat tremolo..
    Everywhere including fender says to only ( measure two tuner lengths not three ) they said it's better for staying in tune.
    I would think three would be better but they say it's not good to have too many.
    COULD YOU GIVE YOUR OPINION ON THIS?
    And read below this is exactly what's right out of the fender handbook!!!

    FROM FENDER
    For these, you'll want to pre-cut the strings to achieve the proper length and desired amount of winds. Pull the sixth string (tautly, remember) to the fourth key and cut it. Pull the fifth string to the third key and cut it. Pull the fourth string between the second and first keys and cut it. Pull the third string nearly to the top of the headcap and cut it. Pull the second string about a 1/2" (13 mm) past the headcap and cut it. Finally, pull the first string 1 1/2" (38 mm) past the top of the headcap and cut it. Insert into the center hole in the tuning key, bend and crimp to a 90-degree angle, and wind neatly in a downward pattern, being careful to prevent overlapping of the strings.

    Seems strange to show Fenfer style vintage tuners with a tunomatic bridge 🤔

    E string is an absolute nightmare. Keeps popping out. It's trial and error.

    Eh, it doesn't work though, does it? I'm replacing my high E and you can't just stick it in the slot and put pressure on it because the string immediately pops out of the hole. Maybe next time have the camera close on what you're doing, and stop cutting away to the guy talking nonstop.

    I hate my Fender brand vintage tuners(70 bucks bought 70 bucks installed on a 50 dollar Bullet Strat. Tight fit). They constantly slip . I feel I'm putting much more tension on the string than we see in this video. I should have bought locking tuners. These tuners should have a rough surface that sort of bites into the string.You measure and then you kink. Are you cutting at the kink?

      Yep, they're a pain! Yes, he's cutting at the kink.

    the guitar didn't look that dirty or grubby. wonder what the guy who owns the guitar was thinking when the guy with the camera was talking his shyte.

    The nontech guy talks way too much. It’s very annoying. Let the tech do his job.

    Good video. If you don't give yourself three tuners worth of lead, then they do tend to slip on you.
