Frudua years later still has the definitive guitar setup guides on yt.

I watched a bunch of his videos years ago but just recently found his website. Such a wealth of information.

@colinmoore5991 4 года назад

I was surprised to see him. I clicked on this video to find the best tricks for restringing my guitar and I'm like "Hey! It's the Beatles vocal guy!"

@Allison_Chaynes 2 года назад

He's doing something right, cause John Frusciante's guitar tech posted this video on how to string this style guitar. 🤷‍♂️

@clarkscott8532 2 года назад

This is the best stringing tutorial because you take the time to repeat the important steps and you can see what you are doing very well. I subscribed.

@FruduaTv 14 лет назад

: ) What makes the string behave like locking tuners in this video is not the higher or lower number of wrappings (less is better) but the way the string is knot around the post and MOST OF ALL the way you tune your guitar (please see related videos) :)

@MrMre1234 4 года назад

Some time ago I found this video, back when I was very frustrated about my guitar constantly going out of tune. I tightened the Grover tuners on my Dean, and mounted the strings as described in this video. Now i´ve been playing for about a week, without the need for retuning! Incredible, how such a simple thing can have a huge effect on my playing. Thank you so much for this! I even cancelled my order for locking tuners...

@lunachopin69420 Год назад

Checking back for the 4th time to this exact video, thanks for the clear instructions and reliable technique used here! Glad to have this handy to refresh my memory, just about every time it’s time again 👍

@lunachopin69420 Год назад

3:48 “Learn this by heart, please!” I’m trying 😂 someday I’ll have it down in my memory !

@ramonaHQ 12 лет назад

Thanks. I have a new guitar giving me tuning trouble. After playing guitar for 25 years you have taught me a better way to string my guitars.

@user-bm2ep7fe8q 4 месяца назад

The best video to how to restring a guitar, every detail mentioned, thanks you.

@j.b.l.tones33 5 лет назад

I did this to my strat yesterday. followed Fender's instructions on their website on how to set up a vintage style tremelo for best performance. but you took things one step further... I thank you so much. I love my strat even more now. you sir are the best. keep making videos and keep learning and teaching. have a good day!

@shinsukekishima Год назад

you are the best. others do not show the knots part with close up like you. thank you

@turntablesrockmyworld9315 3 года назад

Thanks for the great video! This is the only video for beginners that actually shows close-up video, and not just assume what a beginner knows. Well done! I have been hesitant to restring as I don't want to mess it up. This gives clear direction!

@jupiter1001000 11 лет назад

Hey! its 3:26am now and i'm on a mission to watch all your videos.Its really that good!! Extremely informative. Thanks man.

@tmac6604 Год назад

Mr. Frudua, you are so very good with all of your tutorial videos as you take special time to repeat all important steps where as many others are once and done.

@stratacus2003 8 лет назад

I've been locking my strings for 40 years, I'm suprised other players have'nt been doing it that way also. I read about it in "Guitar Player" magazine back then. Also another tip I picked up there also was to use WD 40 for cleaning off your strings at the end of the night and that will make them come alive again and for the following night. Great channel Mr. Frudua!

@jimmycricketlopez2746 2 года назад

Oh thanks Richard. Thats amazing

@th3Invincible 11 лет назад

I didn't understand the whole "locking" thing you have to do before tightening the strings. I looked at like 5 other videos before this and still didn't get it, and you were the only one who explained it well. Thanks!!!

@abramtreadwell722 7 лет назад

I've been playing for 20 years and didn't realize I was stringing my guitar incorrectly until I had a fret level done last year and received my guitar back strung in this fashion. my guitar stayed in tune better than ever before. I string my guitar religiously this way now. in fact, I just finished restringing about an hour ago. Great tips, and I love your videos. I hope you post more frequently in the future. thank you!

@bigmojo13 8 лет назад

Great tips from this guy. I have been doing this for my Les Paul for years, shown to me by my luthier; he called it "the Gibson method" but i have not seen anything online that refers to this. Anyway frudua.com is a fantastic resource.

@poppyonepug1 12 лет назад

Excellent detail

@jaimefilho2041 10 лет назад

Excellent detail, Thank you a lot man o/

@AIainMConnachie Год назад

Use a pair of sturdy needle nose pliers & make a strong tuning-post diameter bend about 1 to 1½ posts past the low E string post, for the bass E string Increase to a span of about two for the highest strings And yes always turn so that the the strings wraps from top to bottom & from inside to out

@FruduaTv 12 лет назад

@perryinjax I recommend cahnging the strings one at a time and retuning each time each string. If this not possible for some reason just put the guitar on the table with a support under the first frets and it will be ok.

@FruduaTv 11 лет назад

Thank you!

@FruduaTv 12 лет назад

@mikeKIdLazy If you mean to use the tremolo see my video how to "How to keep your Strat tremolo in tune". if you don't mean to use the tremolo see the other video where I string and tune with the LP guitar

This just changed it all for me. Wow, I had no idea it’s the way I re-string! Also, Soooo many guitars come from factories “set up”. They often feel great but just don’t stay in tune! Let’s send them this video.

@imagholive 9 лет назад

30 years of guitar playing and I still did not know how to properly string my guitars...My luthier told me about this method but I did not get it right. Your video is detailed enough to help me get it and for the first time today I suceeded. For that, a big THANK YOU.

@FruduaTv 14 лет назад

@forjacob Hi you do not need to do this if you have locking tuners. Just do the minimum of turns areound the post possible.

Best vídeo ever

@mikeKidLazy 12 лет назад

Hello, Mr. Frudua, and thank you for these great tutorials! However, I've got a question: in this video, you show how to tune a "Gibson style" guitar with that kind of headstock. What about a Squier Bullet Strat, which has a different headstock (by the way, I have a bridge that allows for tremolo use, but I've never used it and it seems it can't even be used, since the bridge is screwed tight into the body, so I guess it's... fixed?).

@omri1098 10 лет назад

hello, frudua first it's a very good and detailed video! i'm now practicing. it worked on the 1st string pretty well. but on the other strings pretty bad. i'm pretty sure it's something in my technique, so i will ask these questions: 1. after u have putted the string inside the bridge. do you insert the string inside the tuning key until the length of the string ended, or else leaving some gap on it. 2. this a a method for regular modern strings of a guitar. What about vintage style and bass tuners? Hope u will understand my word and give your best to help me. Omri.

@villainssaintshighclassout7956 2 года назад

THANK YOU' :)

@NikFarhan 14 лет назад

nice looking guitar

@FruduaTv 13 лет назад

@larzvegas89122 If you have a strat on which you mean to use the tremolo THAT video is ok. If you have a LP style guitar with ANGLED headstock just follow this video procedure.

@FruduaTv 14 лет назад

Yes Sir!

@FruduaTv 13 лет назад

@PogPogo Yes Pog just practice a bit more and you will find it very easy to do.

@luthomdod 11 лет назад

Frudua do you have any tricks for changing the strings on vintage style stratocaster tuners? Thanks very much!!

@przecpany 14 лет назад

great video. Thanks! I'll try this next time I change my strings....One thing that I'm still confused about - the number of wraps on the post depends on the gap you leave.....

@fredrik.larsen 11 лет назад

Hi, thank you for posting these videos. Why do you leave any string tension when rapping? Wouldn't that just add extra string that can give away and thus be bad for holding the tune? I thought that was the point with locking tuners. As little string around the tuner as possible. Thanks

@mrkite89 11 лет назад

Buonasera Galeazzo, complimenti per i video! Spiegazioni molto chiare e piacevoli da guardare, complimenti anche per i video sulle armonie vocali dei Beatles! In ogni caso io utilizzo questo metodo per montare le corde da quando l'ho trovato su un manuale della Gretsch e lo trovo fantastico e veloce ma riesco a tenere la corda in tensione per tutta l'operazione senza bisogno di "lasciare spazio": la infilo e la tendo, la passo dentro e sotto, mezzo giro di chiavetta e sta già su! Meglio ancora?

@FruduaTv 14 лет назад

@przecpany Yes., the videos makes some suggestions in this direction.

@FruduaTv 12 лет назад

@Genera1Smok3 It hasn't been the changin but the gauge you mounted which is most probably different then the older one (or another bradn of same gauge strings which has a different tension). did you mount a lighter gauge? Check out the truss rod you probably has to release it a bit.

@PogPogo 13 лет назад

rly great hints! they work perfectly. but when applying your technique to the b and high e strings it gets quite difficult to handle cuz the bent string slips away. got any extra tips? or maybe i just have to practise a bit more :D

@YourLastChance 5 лет назад

Does this technique work on Fender style headstocks (Strat type guitar) as well?

@unclearless 14 лет назад

Mr. Frudua, thank you for this video. One question sir, should the strings be wrapped around the tuning post in this same way on a standard strat with a standard strat style tremolo? Thank you, ~Kevin~

@FruduaTv 11 лет назад

good!

@mikbert1 11 лет назад

depending on where the fret buzz is as well couldn't another problem be the bridge? I noticed this myself when mounting the same gauge strings that the bridge on my epiphone sg seemed to have gotten lower. great video though, I've been thinking there was probably a better way to wrap the strings than what I have been doing.

@rhinomonton 13 лет назад

Hi Galeazzo, on your other videos, you showed to restring E,A,D ( videos on How to set up your stat for better tremolo use) to wrap over the tuner holes ? so which is better?

@unclearless 14 лет назад

"Yes" to using this only on a fixed bridge? Or "Yes" to using the string wrapping on the gear post for both style of guitars? Thank you Frudua, and HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and yours! ~Kevin~

@jcoo71 9 лет назад

Found your website yesterday and the detail you put into building a guitar is outstanding. My question for this video is I notice on the left side you turn the tuning pegs counter clock wise when restringing. But on the right side you tune clockwise. Is there a difference? And donation has been sent!

@JustinNoOriginBand 9 лет назад

jcoo71 On a headstock with all the pegs on one side all of the strings should come off the right side of the tuner post. On a guitar with 3 on each side, the first 3 strings are to the right and the 3 high string come off to the left. that lines the strings up with the slots on the nut. You probably know this by now though.

@Rusli1659LPSoldier 3 года назад

thanks I came here for that restring to tune my guitar but I should hire a guitar tech to do this. But I want these tuners, Tune winder and other gears to fix my string. But how to fix a bridge and a tremolo to be in tune?

@fuzzysound5651 13 лет назад

I wonder, can I use this method of yours with a guitar that already has locking tuners? That would make it super-steady wouldnt it? Thank you very much again!

@mikeKidLazy 12 лет назад

I've reached this conclusion after I have tried to mount the whammy bar and move it so as to create that tremolo effect, but the whammy bar wouldn't move so I stopped for fear not to damage anything. Anyway, I need to restring my guitar and I was wondering what I should do - is it ok to use the sae method you've shown in this video? (except for the higher strings, which would probably have to be mounted just like the thicker strings, I suppose)... Could you please help me? :)

@FruduaTv 14 лет назад

@kirschak1 Se la avvolgi in questo modo in pratica creai una specie di nodo che, una volta stretchata, fissa la corda perfettamente

@mrkite89 11 лет назад

Una piccola richiesta: un video su come settare il "micro tilt adjustment" di alcune Stratocaster? Es. American Series primi anni 2000... Grazie! :) Keep on teachin'!

@drapwinylastudio6990 11 лет назад

Question, question! When I restring my guitar (Fender Strat Mexican), I insert the string inside the hole and hold it in my hand, then I tune it up while holding so the string wraps as it likes. This way I have one wrap on every string. How does this method sound for you?

@FruduaTv 11 лет назад

Buona idea

@patriks.7815 3 года назад

I come back here year after year

@tb0432 12 лет назад

My luthier is a certified Martin, Gibson, and Fender tech. He showed me this same way and it works great for tuning stability. My only comment would be in the number of wraps mentioned in the explanation. Maybe I heard it wrong, but 3-4 (low) and 5-6 (high) are too many. The video shows fewer wraps, which is the way my luthier showed me. The lowest (thickest) strings might only have one wrap. Since you usually eyeball the slack, another wrap or two won't hurt especially on the thinnest strings.
