TUNING MACHINE TENSION ADJUSTMENT
The tuning machines have spring-loaded mechanisms which automatically take up wear, preventing backlash. However, it is possible to adjust the amount of pressure required to turn the machines. Each machine has a tension adjustment screw, as illustrated.
Clockwise screw rotation tightens the machine. The tuning machines should be adjusted to the extent that they are firm, but can turn smoothly. This adjustment is normally unnecessary, and excessive tightening can lead to premature tuning machine wear.
CHANGE THE STRINGS
- Unwind the old string at the tuning machine at the top of the neck (it is recommended to change 1 string at a time)
- Push the old string through the body of the guitar through the hole in the bridge.
- Insert a new string through the corresponding hole (compare the thickness of the new string to the old string to make sure it is the correct string).
- Run the string over the nut in the bridge and along the neck.
- Feed the string through the hole in the tuning machine post.
- Bend the string around the post and wind the string using a tuning peg.
