Learn tips about strings
How do you like to use strings, symmetrical, or asymmetrical?

Do you know why for around 100 years almost everyone went the other way?(namely the 6th string in the 6th peg, and the 4th
string strung on the 4th peg)

Have you tried the 6th string in the 4th peg, and the 4th
string strung on the 6th peg?

Very interesting, Ruben. The next time I change my strings I will try the 6th string in the fourth peg and vice versa. I also like you tip about not having too many windings around the posts as it is hard on the keywinds or tuners.

Very interesting too about the 12 hole bridge too
Next time I string my little Flamenco guitar I will do some of these tricks.

Eden.

That all makes perfect sense to me. I am loving these tips and lessons for beginners.

Friends
On any nylon string guitar you can try this 6th and 4th stuff and see the difference!
