Stringing Classical/Nylon String Guitars:
Fender classical guitars have a surface
mounted bridge through which the strings are looped (“tie-on” strings), or
fed (“ball-end” strings).
To re-string a classical/nylon string guitar using “tie-on” strings, first form
a double loop knot with the looped end of the string,
(Figure 7)
. Feed the
other end of the string through the appropriate hole in the bridge and then
back and through the loop you just made,
(Figure 8)
. Pull the string taught
so that the pressure of the twisted loop holds the string in place on the
