    Default rats, strung my acoustic wrong - question

    so instead of going from the middle out on the G, B, E on my acoustic with 3 on each side, in my hurry, I went outside in.

    Will:

    1) The earth explode?
    2) Lucid Lunatic stop drinking?
    3) Jolly and Stratobastard become best friends?
    4) Nothing happen?

    Thanks,
    Dank

    ok knuckleheads - could there be any bad implications? not staying in tune, pulling on the nut too much (no pun intended), etc.? it's going right on a moving truck, I just wanted to get some strings on for some tension during its slumber (did that deal at sam ash where they take your old strings and give you a free pack of martins!)

    I don't think anything bad will happen except every time you pick up your guitar to tune it, you'll first move the tuners in the wrong direction and then correct yourself.

    Thanks Evan, and if anything worse happens, I'm coming to get you (by that I mean buy you a beer)! Well, I plan on coming over anyway for a tour (maybe there's no tours, I don't know) - I'll be living in Thousand Oaks about an hour(?) away. Just realized how close I'll be to the duncan pad, awesome! Not sure why I thought Santa Barbara was further up the coast.

    I'm lost. You put the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd strings on, but are you saying you put the 3rd where the 1st goes or that you put them on 1st, 2nd, then 3rd instead of 3rd, 2nd, then 1st?

    Or are you saying you tightened the tuners so the wraps go around the outside of the posts instead of around the inside?

    yeah, everything's on the right post, but I typically do it so all strings go from the middle of the headstock out. on the 3 highest, they go outside toward the headstock.

    Is yours a three volume model? If it is, then the pups go on the middle connection for their respective volume. This link should help you http://www.guitarelectronics.com/pro...HH3T22-01.html. If it's a two volume model then you're **** out of luck cause I don't know them.
