[Soldi]

U have to cut the string first. Then poke the string into the hole, then wind as usual. I used to screw up alot, got used to it after few attempts.

restringing

Leave slack of about the length of one tuning peg, you will need a good couple of rounds around the tuning post for some stability. Not too much, you don't want to have anything more than 2-3 round or you will sacrific on tuning stability.

Cut off the portion you don't need with a good pair of wire cutters.

Next place the end of the string into the hole, a good 1-2 cm can go in. After that bend the string to a kink and place the remaining around the tuning post and wind it up!

Once strings are at tension stretch the strings evenly throughout of the guitar, tune to pitch and you're all set.
