How to change strings on a Spanish guitar
If you want to change the strings yourself, you can easily do it. Find a tutorial online that shows you how. Tutorials are plentiful and it's often easier when you can see how to do it rather than reading the procedure in a manual.
While you're at it, change all the strings at once. Of course, it makes sense to change them as you go along, when they break one at a time. It's also okay to change them all at the same time once in a while. New strings across the board just give you the best sound and balance between strings.
Over time, you'll learn to hear when it's time to change strings. When the guitar starts to sound more dead and when both high and low frequencies start to disappear from the soundstage, it's high time to change. Until you get a feel for when to change the strings, it's a good idea to put the string change on your calendar so you get a reminder at regular intervals. It will get done and keep your guitar sounding great for longer.
Experiment with the strings and sound
It's not certain that you'll find the right strings on the first try. You may need to try a few different types of strings in different thicknesses before you find the ones that suit you and your playing style best.
If you're not sure where to start, start with a medium gauge set of strings. You'll get the best of both ends of the scale. Your guitar sounds great and is easy to play. That's a good place to start. You may find that you prefer slightly thicker strings for a more powerful and audible sound. Maybe you prefer thinner strings that sound brighter and crisper. Try different strings and choose the one that plays best for you.
When you buy your guitar, you might as well buy a new set of strings right away. There's just nothing like the sound of brand new strings. You have to treat yourself.
