Winding strings.....

When installing new ones, wrap twice around the peg, be sure the winding starts close to the guitar but below the string hole in the peg.... after 2 complete wraps, push the wraps down and the string gores through the peg hole with the wraps under it.

Wind the peg in the correct direction to tighten to pitch. Trim the flying end, leave about 1/4" or so.


That's the method I use and it works flawlessly and holds tune.

You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.

The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
