Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know when it’s time to change strings?
•The strings are dull and lifeless and do not resonate (a leading cause of bad tone).
•The guitar does not play in tune (poor intonation).
•The strings lose pitch rapidly (poor tuning stability).
•The strings have become tarnished or discolored.
•The guitar has dirt or grime on or underneath the strings.
My guitar seems to play and sound fine. Why do I need a setup?
Regular maintenance will keep your guitar in optimal playing condition. Because of changes in temperature, humidity and normal wear and tear, your guitar will need a comprehensive “tune-up” at regular intervals. The Music Room recommends a Deluxe Setup 2-4 times a year depending on the guitar and/or the guitar player.
What are the benefits of a setup?
Your guitar will play in tune and stay in tune longer. Regular setups improve playability and tone. When your guitar plays and sounds better, you will play better and potentially progress faster.
How often should I change my strings?
As a general rule, it’s a good idea to change the strings on your guitar every 4-8 weeks. Classical Guitar strings will last a little longer, and Bass Guitar strings usually last 8-12 weeks. Guitars that are played frequently may need string changes more often. (Many professional musicians change strings weekly or after every gig).
