Stringing the Guitar Up (Finally!)


We're nearing the end of our journey on the creation of your first cigar box guitar! Needless to say it will be bittersweet, but I have a plan for this blog upon finishing. I would love to showcase my viewers' guitars, if any have finished building theirs.

Stringing up a guitar is a useful skill that any musician should be able to do. Get used to it too, as you'll have to do it quite often. I recommend changing strings on your instrument once every two months.

To simplify this process, I've prepared a photo sequence that will walk you through the steps on how to apply strings. Good luck!
