TOPIC: Never string your guitar before bed

Thanks for the links and the advice. I have been putting off doing it, but I think the time to do it in upon me. I will try not to do it before bedtime though.

Those TAYLOR site videos on how to change strings are helpful and really good.
Should not be a big deal to change the strings...maybe a SLOTHEAD will give you more of a challenge if you want pricks and sticks on your hand.
Good luck!

I had an Epiphone Masterbilt slothead for a while and I HATED string changes, like having acupuncture against your will.

if you change strings in bed before going to bed make sure you collect ALL of the sting pieces before hand.

The key is to find a suitable place where the hazard will be minimalized. My wife is good at telling me where not to do such things...

Changing them regularly is worth the trouble. Also be sure to have a couple sets on hand!

I had been thinking about changing mine for weeks but kept putting off buying new strings. And, of course, last week one of the strings finally broke. I was without a guitar for several days while waiting for my strings to be delivered!
