How to Change Strings on Electric Guitar | Guitar Tech Tips | Ep. 18 | Thomann 

Yeah it took me a few years but now I#m fast as lightning. Especially when I'm well caffeinated. Haha! Cheers Poo! //Kris

Dude, Adam, that's so cool to hear! Have fun playing the guitar! //cheers, Kris

Have you tried the new ddarrio XT strings? I've never tried Elixir, but the XT's basically feel like regular strings to me. Maybe VERY slightly more "slick" or smooth, but I definitely wouldn't be able to tell without knowing ahead of time.

@@niclastname yes I have. they lasted a bit longer than regular XL's, but were dead after a couple of weeks - still good strings, but no match for Elixir.

I do that too like 3-4 times a year. Polished frets do feel awesome to play. :) //cheers, Kris

Any time! :) //cheers, Kris

A digital caliper will help you find out the gauge. But you can also go to a music retailer and ask the sales guys. In most shops there is going to be someone with tools and experience. You can also simply change them to "standard" bass strings (45-100 for example) and see how that feels. //cheers, Kris

It works pretty fine this way too if your hands are strong enough. You're right though, a quarter is the way to go. :) //cheers, Kris

Hey, check out our string change on floyd rose guitars (link is in the description box). That's gonna work best for you. //cheers, Kris

Hu-hu :) //Kris

That's only because your amp is not loud enough. haha! //cheers, Kris
