I take that opprtunity to clean also and am surprised when I've bought used guitars with brand new strings dirty and gunky. A buddy of mine just recently shown me the pencil (graphite)to  the nut trick. Forgot to do it on any of the guitars I just strung up though.
I used to go through string like crazy, not so much any more. Even with my high acid,toxic sweat I get longer life outbox my strings. I assume it's in my strumming technique which has probably gotten bit lighter, just from the constant playing and performing. Perhaps playing the uke has played apart in that. I don't use a pick buy it is a  different way of using your right hand. What do I know?
Good stuff!

Great tutorial video. I usually get more winding's on the peg and seems like I'm constantly cranking that string winder -- I like your method. Thanks!

Today, I changed strings (Telecaster) with your technique and my guitar was immediately in tune. Very useful video! Thanks, Johnny!

Next time I change strings of my classical guitar, I try the same method!
