I'm trying low G on my tenor for the first time. Went with the Fremont soloist. I have never put on a wound string before - is the installation the same? I was surprised that after one wrap around the peg it was already in tune. I am worried that it is not secure. Thanks ahead for your input.

As you have found out you need to leave more slack with a wound string before tightening it up. If you haven't cut it you can back some length out and rewind it. But if it is holding after a day or two you're fine to leave it as it is now.
