Hello! I'm a guitar player of seven years and bought an LTD JH-200 about 6 months ago. Finally busted the high E string and I've never strung a guitar with these kinds of mechanics before. I'm not sure what its called. You have to loosen a peg with a 2.5 / 3 MM Allen Wrench and remove a little black metal block to insert the string, but I'm not sure HOW to insert it. Any help? I tried taking off the back panel but there's nowhere to push the string through. I can't collapse the ring of the string under the block either, it just doesn't fit. Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks for the reply. It was much appreciated, however it seems i'd already figured everything out and the video didn't tell me what I needed to find out. -.- Seems you have to cut the ball off the end of the string and put it on backwards from a slide-in style fitting. Thanks though!
Download the PDF of the 'Guitar Chord Slide Rule', print it out, fold it together and you'll have at your disposal a very neat tool that will not only show you all the positions for the main flavors of chords, but will also teach you a very important lesson about how the guitar works... It consists of a folded sleeve and six double sided inserts, instructions for cutting it out and folding it together are included with the PDF ... it's very simple to do, and if you botch it, you can simply print it out again!
