Remove the strings. Loosen the strings until they are no longer under tension. Then, either clip them using nippers or continue to loosen them via the tuning machines until they can be pulled out of the tuning pegs. An inexpensive tool called a peg winder, available at any music/guitar shop, is very handy for this.

Remove the bridge pins. Once your strings have been removed from the headstock, take out the bridge pins. These are the knob-looking things (usually white or black) that allow the strings to hook themselves onto the inside of the guitar. Bridge pins can be quite stubborn, especially if either they or the guitar is new. Occasionally you may be tempted to grab these from the outside with pliers. While this is acceptable if done with the utmost caution, it is generally not necessary. The best method is to use a bridge pin puller, which comes in all varities (and therefore prices), and can be purchased at any guitar/music shop. Another method would be to push the pins out from inside the guitar instead. Actually pushing the string further into the guitar as you do this sometimes helps since the end of the string is wound and ';wedges'; itself in with the peg. Once the pegs pop free you can pull them out of the peg holes. Note: Over time, each peg is grooved by the strings they've been holding. It is very advantageous to keep your pegs laid out in the order they are removed so you can put them back in the same holes from which they were removed.

Remove the strings from the peg holes.

Clean your guitar, if desired. This comprises cleaning the body, fingerboard, back of the neck, and headstock. Use a decent cleaner from a guitar or music shop if possible. Never use furniture polish, glass spray or other common household cleaners. If nothing else, simply use a slightly dampened* chamois cloth, terrycloth, diaper or lint-free cotton cloth. Oils from your hands will build up on the fingerboard of the guitar with remarkable speed causing a thick gunk.

Many frown upon applying any water at all to the guitar, especially the fingerboard, as it can negatively affect unsealed wood. A dry cloth is safest, but if you must use water, you should apply such a miniscule amount of water to the cloth that you can barely tell it is damp.

Get your new strings ready. Some strings' ball ends are color-coded to indicate what note they are to be tuned to.

Choose your own order. There are many theories about what order strings should be applied. Some guitarists start at the thin end and work their way up, or start at the thick end and work their way down. Some say it is best to first put in the thinnest string, then the thickest, then alternate to the next-thinnest, then the next-thickest and so on (1, 6, 2, 5, 3, 4). Alternating in this fashion keeps a more even left-to-right pull on the neck of the guitar and makes later tuning less problematic, especially for older guitars.

Insert the knob end of the string into the peg hole and re-insert the end peg, all the while holding in the string. It is helpful to pull a little tension on the string toward the head of the guitar. Ultimately this tension is that keeps those pegs from falling out. You'll wish you had 3 hands for this.

Stretch each string. Once each string is in its peg hole, stretch it up to its appropriate tuning peg and insert the end through the hole in the peg. Keep in mind that you will want to be turning the guitar tuning key ALWAYS TO THE RIGHT to tighten. If the tuning keys on your guitar are on opposite sides of the head (as is usual) you bring the string up between the two rows of key pegs and to the outside.

Thread the string through the hole and pull tight, but not too tight. You will want to leave just a little bit of slack to have some excess string to wind around the tuning pegs. If you do not, you will run out of string too quickly and the strings will loosen up when you are playing. This is, regrettably, a trial-and-error process and is different for each string. Too much excess string will cause a huge ';spool'; of wire on your tuning pegs (a bad thing, not just cosmetically) and too little can cause the string to literally come off. Just remember, you can always cut off more if you leave too much. You can never add back what you cut off.

Bend the string UP (90掳 perpendicular to the guitar) and turn the tuning key so you get several winds around the peg. This can take A LOT of winding (again, the peg winder is very handy for this part). Make sure that when you tighten the string, that each subsequent wind stacks one below the last, so that none of the winds overlap. This takes a lot of practice to do alone, but it ensures both a cleaner looking wind and a longer life to the string itself, and the guitar itself staying in tune. Do not tighten the string to its usual pitch, but a few semi-tones below. You want it tight enough to hold in place and put enough tension on the bottom peg to not come out again, but now is not yet the time for ';tuning';.

Repeat from step 8 with the rest of the strings.

Tune your guitar now (see How to Tune a Guitar).

Use some wire cutters to snip off excess string, leaving only about 1/8 of an inch (1/2 centimeter) of ';stub';. Cutting the string too short can make the ';stub'; end slip back into the spooled string and loosen your strings.How can i change a broken string on my acoustic guitar.?
Probably the wisest thing to do would be to take the guitar to a music store and have one of the assistants show you. Once shown, you won't forget. Difficult to put it in writing.
Difficult question to answer. It depends on the guitar. Usually you don't need to make a knot at the bridge.



On most acoustics you just need to remove the peg from behind the bridge, insert the end of the string with the circular hook, re-insert the plug and pull tight on the string before feeding it through the tuners and winding it tightly (be sure to wind it the correct way).



If it doesn't seem to be as easy as that, then take it into a music store and have them show you. Might cost you the first time, but once you know how to do it you'll be set for life :)
Assuming U have a Spanish/Classical guitar.Remove broken string.Thread new string through hole in bridge . pull towards guitar neck, leaving short length behind bridge. Take this length, loop it over bridge %26amp; under main length of string. behind saddle.loop ity a couple of times more.Attach other end of string to machine head, and tighten up till in tune. Pressure of string will hold loops in place on bridge.Proper name - timber hitch.Should be very short length of string on body behind bridge.Hope this helps.
