The one with the most/best pictures, thorough explanation, etc.
Thanks!

Yeah, I'd say Dagwoods link was very good. Thanks for sharing!
It is a small world for metal fanatics. I welcome you fellow musicians, especially the metalheads!
The thing about changing strings is, once you've done it you never forget. It's just plain commonsense; and if you can't remember, for instance, which way to turn the string around the tuning peg, simply change them one at a time so you can always look at the next one.
The best tutorial for changing strings is to actually do it!
:D :D :D

first few times can be daunting....fear of maybe doing something terribly wrong (you can't)...
but it soon becomes second nature...and eventually a 'treat' to put new janglers on....you can clean the fretboard and remove the gunge that gathers under the strings....a quick vacuum of an acoustic is also a must in my opinion 8)
I love this place...
:D

Justin Sandercoe is a great source of information for a lot of stuff.
