    Hi, just want to say I haven't changed my strings since I've got my ukukele three years ago. I didn't hear the sound getting worse, but mainly I was just too nervous to try and change the strings! Today, I watched your video, took heart (and the strings I got ages ago) and it worked really well! Thanks a lot...
    Well, in fact I actually watched quite a view different videos, but yours was the one I actually used. Great job!

      You can do it. It does take some practice, but most people feel the same way that you do. It's ok if it's not perfect the first, second, or even the 20th time. Just keep trying and it will get easier the more you do it.

      I recently discovered I needed to do a string set change at 12:15 at night so the ukulele would be ready for "ukulele club" at my kid's school. I've changed many electric guitar and bass strings, even some acoustics, but never a tie bridge. I had it done by 1AM, but still needed break-in. My suggestion: use the existing strings as practice units for those portions you feel comfortable with, such as the tie portion. Trust me, you CAN do this. First, this video is good, so this is a fantastic start. Second, it's new to you so of course it will be a challenge, a challenge you can rise to overcome. Third, who cares how long it takes. If you want this to take 4 hours, then so be it. It's better to take your time and do the job right and to learn from it. Watch the video a few times, especially the parts that apply to your ukulele. I'm sure by now you've taken care of this and you're good to go.

    Thank you so much for this short but informative video! I have been playing steel string acoustic guitar since forever, so I am very familiar with solid headstocks. But the tie bar bridge was new for me. I tried to put my strings on two other times following two other videos, but they just popped out of the bridge before I got them up to pitch! Third time's a charm though. Your technique of looping the end under the main string, then under the loop you just made, made all the difference!

    Thanks for the video. At first I inserted the string twice through the tuning post to secure it according to other advice but quickly pulled it out because it was scraping off some of the string's outer coating. I then followed your method. I didn't cut my strings - other advice said to leave it which I agreed might be useful if a string breaks. I will keep it like that until the strings settle at least.

    Thank you for all your videos. I find them all very helpful. I bought some carbon D'Addario strings for my tenor ukulele and needed this video for instructions on the Loop-De-Loo method. But when I was putting on the thinnest A string, the loop came undone and I had already trimmed the length from both the top and bottom since I thought I was finished. I put the string on again using the Loop-De-Loo method and when tuning, it untied again! So I improvised and tried a Loop-De-Loop-De-Loo method and that held. Just wanted you to know. Again, thank you for all your videos. I always look forward to new ones.

    This was a great video especially since there aren't many other videos on changing the slotted bridges. You said to turn the tuning peg down and counterclockwise to tune up the new string. I did that and broke a new string when I cut the excess from the top. I was changing string 4 (G). I realized turning the peg down wasn't counterclockwise on that side of my uke. I've got it now! Thanks so much!!! I enjoy your channel! :)

    Nice video 😊 i was just checking to see if there was a good video on this subject that i can link people if they need some instuctions 😊 the only notes i have is 1. Clean your fretboard every time you change strings since it’s the best time to do so. 2. If your ukulele has a lose bridge keep track or take a picture off how it sit before you start since the intonation will be off if it falls off and you put it on the wrong way. 3. It is not allways nessesary to “baby” your instrument they are made to be used, sure take care off it but they are not made off glass.
    But still you you cover everything else and this will be the video i will send to people who needs some instuctions on changeing strings 😊
    (Also great work, keep it up 😊)

    thanks for addressing various types of bridges and headstocks. a couple of posts brought up issues i also have:
    1) to use thicker strings for low-G or baritone, any strategies how to check the uke, like the grooves in the nut and especially the slotted style saddle, and what proper methods to modify those areas?
    2) saving strings from an old set for backup or revisiting an alternate tuning -- i suppose once the ends are cut that's it. is this why some people play with uncut strings like long whiskers sticking out?

    Great tutorial! I know I will be referring back to this one often, (or at least as often as I change strings). According to the information given here I am almost due for a string change on my concert uke, which I received in late April. I have played it every day since. I wish I had a tenor as well so I could keep one tuned with a low G string, but will have to wait to make that happen. Thanks again for all you do to instruct and inform us. Blessings.

      I hope this helps. I know changing strings can be boring or cumbersome, but everyone breaks a string ever once in a while, so I thought I'd make a video. It makes me happy that you'll find it usytoday and for the days to come. Thanks for showing your support. It means a lot to me.

      Thank you! I tried to cover as much information as I could without being overwhelming. This is actually the second time that I filmed this one, and I had to re-film it because the first one was 20 minutes long! I decided to make a voice over style tutorial, and it turned out WAY better :).

    Wow, I had no clue you could buy a nut lubricant! All my orchestra teachers in school (I played cello for nine years and developed horrible tendinitis so I can't play that instrument anymore) taught us to grab a pencil and run the tip up and down in the nut a few times. The graphite did a pretty good job!

    This morning when l opened my ukulele case l noticed that g string was broken. I usually practice every day so it happened during the night apparently...And since it's my first time changing strings on it( I've bought it 7,5 months ago) l got nervous, haha. But your video is really clear and helpful, so now l can play my uke again!
    PS. I had a bit of a trouble changing C string as it's the thickest one. Has anybody had this problem??
