When winding strings on to the tuning machine post, always wind them tightly
and evenly to avoid any slipping than can occur if there are any gaps.
Always use at least 2 or 3 winds around the post starting from top to bottom.
As a rule of thumb, use about and extra 5cm (2 inches) of slack when restringing
a guitar and about 8cm (3 inches) of slack when restringing a bass.
For unwound, or plain strings, follow the diagram (Figure 1) detailing how to
install these strings on to the post to prevent them from slipping.
1. Insert end of string into tuning post (make sure to leave enough slack for a few wraps around the post).
2. Wrap end of string clockwise around post and under the string where it goes into the post (counterclockwise when
stringing tuners on treble side of headstock).
3. Pull end of string tight over itself making a sort of knot (end of string may then be bent down and cut off cleanly near
knot).
4. Tune to pitch, making sure the wraps wind neatly down the tuning post.
Note: Strings are always wound clockwise around the posts on the bass side and counter-clockwise around the posts on
the treble side of headstock.
