Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓There are many different styles of tuners and bridges, therefore, many different methods of removing the strings. This Starcaster has a string-through bridge and standard in-line tuners, so the string changing process is fairly simple.
What you need
-
-
-
Start by loosening the strings. This is done by turning the tuning knob until the string has lost tension.
-
Repeat this for all six strings on the guitar.

It may be necessary to use pliers to remove string ends from the tuning peg.

-
-
After removing the strings from the tuning pegs, slide the strings through the bridge and out of the back of the guitar.
-
If the twists in the string ends are in the way, use wire cutters to snip them off. This will allow the heavier strings to pass through the bridge easier.
