To string your twelve-string guitar without trouble: change a few strings at a time (never all 12 at once) so as not to suddenly release all the tension from the top; respect the position of each pair as they were originally; wind evenly and downwards on each tuning peg; stretch each new string by hand and retune several times until it settles. Always use the correct gauge (pair strings 10-47) to avoid straining the neck.
