David Bremer’s “How to Restring Your Guitar” is a highly focused guitar maintenance video course from Machine Head Instruments and David Bremer. The goal is not to teach guitar playing as a complete system, but to address a common yet often overlooked issue for guitarists: how to restring a guitar properly in order to reduce string breakage and improve tuning stability.
The page states that David Bremer has over 20 years of experience in guitar performance, teaching, and repair. He argues that many guitarists have never truly learned the “right” way to change strings, which can lead to tuning instability, broken strings, or the need to pay a music shop to do the job. The video runs for more than 20 minutes and includes extensive close-up footage. It demonstrates restringing methods for steel-string acoustic guitars, electric guitars, and electric guitars with Floyd Rose-style tremolo systems, while also covering tuning techniques. The course is delivered as a pre-recorded video, with an instant MP4 download available, as well as a DVD version.
The MP4 download version costs USD 4.99, which the page emphasizes is less than the price of a quality set of guitar strings. Payment is handled through PayPal, with immediate download after purchase. A DVD hard-copy version is also available, but pricing and shipping costs must be requested by email. The course also includes a 100% satisfaction guarantee, with refunds available by email if the buyer is not satisfied.
The advantages are its clear focus, low price, and low barrier to entry, making it especially suitable for players who have never been systematically taught how to restring a guitar. The instructor has a long background in teaching and repair, the content covers common guitar types, and the practical value is fairly strong. The drawbacks are also obvious: the course scope is very narrow, focusing only on restringing and tuning; there is no clear information about subtitles, language options, chapters, interactive Q&A, update frequency, or supporting materials; DVD pricing is not transparent, and the website information appears relatively old, making it difficult to judge whether the product is still being maintained.
This course is suitable for beginner guitarists, self-taught players, guitarists who frequently break strings or struggle with tuning stability, and anyone who wants to save money on paying a shop to change strings. It is not suitable for users looking for a complete guitar performance course, structured music theory training, or a certificate program.
