Finishing Guitar String Ends - Beginner Guitar Maintenance
In this video, i demonstrate how i finish guitar string ends to leave a nice little loop instead of a sharp thorn or a fish hook.
Tools needed: needle nose pliers, wire cutter
Finishing the string ends is the final touch between the guitar tech and the guitar player,
And it sucks when a luthier goes to all of the effort to make a beautiful guitar, only to have it poke the guitar player and make them bleed.
Theres probably a blues or metal song about getting poked by your guitar string ends and bleeding on your guitar.
It sucks when you, the guitar buyer, spends a lot of money on a nice guitar, only to get poked by a sharp guitar string end.
Many years ago, i started curling the string ends into a loop like this,
and then for a few years i quit finishing the ends...
And then i remembered why i started finishing guitar string ends the first time.
I think i will stick with this method for now unless i discover something even better!
