UPDATE: Tie Bridge String Changing Question
I've been changing guitar steel strings for 45 years, but have to admit these ukes are new to me. So, I have a question.
I understand the tie process, but the videos I've watched always talk about leaving each individual string end turned down toward the uke body after pulling it tight. Kala has pulled all the string ends together and has run them down the back of the bridge (see picture).
Is what Kala did necessary?
What is the best way to do these ends?
I'm planning to change to a new set, which will include a low G wound string. Will the Kala method still work with that?
Any pics you'd like to share would be appreciated.
