Can you use light guitar strings on an electric acoustic?

You shouldn't do this. They have different types of strings for a reason. But if you're still insistent upon trying it, make sure you have a professional guitar tech do this for you, because chances are, even if you use the exact same gauged strings, you will have to have your truss rod readjusted, which will cost more than buying strings that are made for an electric guitar.

What do you put on your violin bow?

Rosin is a commonly used material for bows. It is a powdery substance that reduces friction to prevent too much damage to the bow during normal use, but still provides enough friction to produce a sound from the strings.


How do you change strings of a Cort acoustic guitar?

A Cort acoustic guitar is pretty much like any other acoustic guitar. The strings are attached to the bridge by using pins (usually plastic) that are inserted into the bridge to "lock" the ball end of the string into the bridge. To replace the strings, loosen all the strings using the tuners and remove the strings from the tuners. Once the strings have been removed from the tuners, the pins in the bridge must be removed to release the strings from the bridge. Use something made of hard plastic to pry the pins up from the bridge. Do not use metal as it will scratch the finish of the bridge. Most plastic string winders have a notch in them to allow prying up the pins and not damaging the bridge. Once the pins have been removed the old strings can be removed from the guitar. While the strings are off, take a little time to clean the fret board and the area underneath the strings that is difficult to get too when the strings are installed. Use a quality guitar cleaner or polish. If you don't have any you can use a very small amount of furniture polish to help remove any residue. When you are ready to reinstall the strings, place the ball end of the first string you wish to install into the appropriate hole in the bridge and then press the pin into the hole. Then, place the other end of the string into the appropriate tuner hole. The string will be longer than necessary so insert the string until there is enough slack in the string so that there will be at least a coulple of revolutions on the tuner until the slack is taken out. The amount of slack needed is different depenting on the diameter of the string. The larger strings will only need a couple of revolutions, where the smaller strings may need four, five or six revolutions. Repeat this process for each string and when you are done, tune the guitar to standard. If you do not have a guitar tuner, you can find tuners on the internet that create the proper tones to tune the guitar too. Remember the strings will stretch for some time after being installed so it may be more difficult to maintain the instrument in tune and may require more frequent tuning initially. The time it takes for the strings to stabilize and stop stretching varies depending on the strings and how they are installed.

Vibrations that come through the breaks squeaking can cause the irritating squeaking that we have come to know. The high frequency of the vibrations results in the high pitch squeaking.
