How do you make the tuning pegs on your violin stop being so loose?

For the tuning pegs in the scroll, you can try pushing them in hard while tuning. If that doesn't work - and you are sure that the hole has not become too large or the peg too small for it - then you'll have to find a way to help make it grip its hole better i.e. to increase the friction of the peg in the hole. A good way is to pull the peg out and rub the bow's rosin block all around the stem of the peg to leave a coating of rosin dust on the surface where peg's stem fits into its hole. Some people recommend using pencil graphite but, as that is more of a lubricant than rosin dust, I have have never found that it works as well as some rosin.

No, as long as the string is attached properly and the tuning peg itself doesn't slip.


How long is a guitar string in centimeters?

It depends on who you ask. some guitarists leave their strings full length, which depends on the company that makes the strings. Others put their hand perpendicular to the neck on the 12th fret, put the string through the bridge, over their hand and through the hole in the tuning peg, then cut the string where it exits the tuning peg. The guitar's model also affects the string length.


Why does my Dean guitars bottem E string 'the tiniest one' keep breaking at the tuning peg every time i tune down?

Check to see if the small hole in the peg isn't overly sharp or you are putting a "kink" in the string as you are putting it on. The string gets a kink in it when you put it on then as you unwind it to tune down it snaps.

Can I combine guitar strings with bass strings on an electric guitar and if so what thickness should I use?

Thought I've never tried this, I highly doubt using bass strings on a guitar would work. First of all, the bass string likely wouldn't fit inside a guitar's tuning peg. Also, the action on a guitar simply wouldn't work with a bass string. As far as pickups go, I'm not sure what bass frequencies would do to a guitar pickup, but i wouldn't try.

Can a guitar strap fit on an ukulele?

It is possible to fit the guitar strap to it if it has a strap peg. The strap may or may not be too long, however. If your guitar or ukelale does not have a top strap peg, like me, then you can tie a long string or strap behind the strings, above the nut. I reccomend using a wider strap to prevent it from cutting into your shoulder.
