When you are ready to change strings, cut them all and get them out of the way. Reach in there and tap it out with something.
Order a new set here.

All in due time. This one just came out of the closet for the first time since Feb 2017.

Sound hole will be wide open when you change strings.

Just reach in and push it back through from the inside out. I remove pins that way frequently to limit pry marks on some acoustics.

My recommendation based on the dust, stain on bass side of bridge and the likely hood of getting Tetanus from those strings….

And yes, that's actually a shoe lace guitar strap. That's how I ended up with it 20+ years ago. A guy left it at my house and never came to get it back so it is mine now.









I also love how it still has the plastic film on the pick guard. Model number and whatnot visible through the sound hole.

Dust is what gives it soul. You think lightin' hopkins had a clean guitar?
