Installing Strings

[BassDelGato]

Does anyone have a link to a site where there are pictures on how to install upright strings? i have always had other people put them on, but I have a classical music audition this wednesday and i need to get rid of these helicore hybrids fast, i just ordered some pirastro permanents which seems to be the best classical string from what people say. But i dont wanna screw up my audition becuase i strung my bass poorly, does anyone have a link to a good method to stringing my upright? or can someone tell me? help me im desperate :-(

New strings two days before an audition? Brave lad you are.

Gato,
This doesn't help you at all, but yes, the helicore hybrids are terrible. At least on my bass they are. I order Obligatos from Upton last week and hope to get them any day now.

You are brave to swap strings with only two days to an important audition, but I can hardly blame you.

Good Luck . . .
