if you snap strings the first time, there is a good chance you will snap the strings everytime, because you are probably doing it wrong


the FAQ is pretty good, good luck

The first thing you need to do is go out and buy
a set of Extra Light strings
. I personally chose Elixir's because
I know the guagues are about correct, but you can go with
any string type you like. WHILE YOU ARE THERE, PICK UP AN
EXTRA B-STRING FROM A SET OF LIGHT STRINGS. The gauge for that
string must be .016.

I would bet your chances of blowing it are at least double the average human's.
