    Pre winding is a mind-blowing help. Thank you! That seemed so simple but made this much easier and I look forward to applying this technique to my other stringed instruments as well!

      Thanks- it took me 10 years to get shown that trick :)

      I popped one of the strings as I was tuning it...would it have helped to allow more slack to the neck side before pre-winding? It doesn't appear that you did....???

      @@mistyerlund8462 the strings want to rise up (like little terminators!) so sometimes it’s necessary to hold your finger in top of the tuner while you wind it all tight.

    I just changed my mandolin strings for the first time, with the help of this video. Simple, straightforward--your calm approach worked like a charm for me. Thank you! (I was dreading having to change these strings btw)

    Just realized I hadn't changed the strings, and the ones sitting on the mandolin were probably factory garbage,... There's something about layering two guitars, one standard tuning, the other in Nashville tuning and layering a mandolin over top. It's such a big open sound. Perfect for a floaty chorus! Thanks to the new strings and this video, the mandolin sounds fresher!!

    I'm converting a cheapie to lefty, but back of nut to 12th fret, is halfway to the bridge?..

      Yes but you also have to add what is called compensation, so move the bridge back about and extra 2mm -2/32more to start with and test the intonation with the app.

      @@BeauHannamGuitars ta, I'm a little mystified by the tailpiece, tempted to flip it, (how important is that system of string relief, down that end?, assume it's to stop string breakage?).
