REPLACING THE STRINGS

locking nut, and remove the string from the tuning peg.
2 Use an Allen wrench (3 mm) to loosen the string stopper bolt of the bridge
unit, then pull the string out of the saddle and remove it.
3 Use wire cutters to cut off the ball end of the new string.
4 Insert the tip of the string from which you cut off the ball end between the
saddle and the string holder block, and tighten the string stopper bolt to
fasten the string.
5 Wind the string onto the tuning peg, and tune it.
6 When you ve fi nished tuning, tighten the pressure pad bolts of the locking nut.
Memo
• Before you tune, make sure that the string stopper bolts are fi rmly tightened.
FINE TUNING
Even after you ve used the locking nuts to lock the strings, you can use the fi ne
tuners to fi ne-tune each string.
The range of adjustment after the strings are locked will be widest if you leave
all fi ne-tuning bolts near the center of their adjustable range before you tune.
