BTW, I always restring in this order so that I have an old string to tune from, rather than a new one that's still stretching. |

As long as I don't poke myself in the eye with a string end, I consider it a success

Back in the day Martin used to individually package each string in its own paper sleeve.I guess that method got too expensive.

I used to think that sharps and flats were musical . . . then I discovered string-changing.
Go for the trebles, bleed first, then the rest is easy.

Where do you get strings for a left handed guitar? I mean the ball would have to be on the other end, right?

I get what you're saying, but why would anyone want to go through all that? Especially an intimidated newbie who's nervous and insecure enough already.

Try changing a 12string and be a Lefty also. Yes the ball ends are reversed for Lefties

Anyone ever lost an eyeball when changing strings?

I remember leaning over the headstock of a guitar while changing strings and having the end of the string hit the lens of my glasses....
