Before you begin putting strings in, angle the holes in the tuning pegs so they are turned towards the center of the headstock at a 45 degree angle.
1.Pull the 6th string (the largest) across the headstock. It goes in the bottom left tuning peg. Holding the string taut, cut the string one tuning peg's distance away from the peg that the string will go in (see first picture for clarification).
2.Insert the string into the hole in the peg (see second picture for clarification). Tighten the strings by turning the tuning peg left. (Do this for all the BASS strings)
3. Insert pegs as shown in the previous step, and repeat numbers one and two for the 5th string (second largest string)
///
*FYI - You're going to be doing "stringing the guitar part 1" for all the strings before putting them in tuning pegs
///
4.Now the 4th string is where the confusion comes in. You'll notice that there's no peg for you to measure one tuning peg's distance! You need not fear, my friend, for all you have to do is hold the string right behind the tuning peg for the 4th string (third largest string) and while holding it in the same spot, move your hand to the 5th tuning peg. now you can use the 4th tuning peg to measure one tuning peg's distance! yay! (see pictures 3-5 for clarification)
///
*FOR ALL THE BASS STRINGS, YOU ARE GOING TO WANT TO HAVE 2-3 WRAPS AROUND THE TUNING PEG
