Setting up

Fitting strings to the guitar is achieved by threading from the tailpiece to the bridge, emerging through the rel-

evant saddle on the bridge. Start with the thickest string bottom E in the uppermost position on the bridge.

Ensure that the string sits smoothly on its saddle and keep taut whilst winding a couple of turns on the relevant 

tuner. Thread through the string post and bend the string back on itself to anchor it in place. Apply a little ten-

sion­from­the­tuner­and­move­on­to­the­next­string.­Repeat­the­above­process­for­all­six­strings.

Bringing all the strings up to pitch gradually is better achieved with a digital guitar tuner or pitch pipes as a ref-

erence. Please be aware that the tension of the strings may take some time to settle and re-tuning a few times 

might be necessary. Stretching each string gently after reaching the pitch will help to take up slack.
