How to change strings on a charango

Post by charangohabsburg » Sun May 18, 2014 5:09 am

Easy:
Lay it on the floor, drop a water bottle, rattle egg, drum stick, electronic tuner, tuning fork or whatever object on it and then bring it to Markus for top crack repair! :lol:

Important though: don't lower string tension or even take down the strings after the accident because he will have to do this anyway! :idea:

To be fair, things are getting better and I just finished a crack repair on a charango I received with the strings already taken off. :D

To be stupid is like to be dead. Oneself will not be aware of it.
It's only the others who suffer.
