One of the most common questions I get asked is ‘How often should I restring my guitar?”
More info at https://simonmorel.com/how-often-should-i-restring-my-guitar/

Well, without trying to over-complicate a pretty straightforward question there are a few qualifying questions that will help you make up your mind;

1. How do the strings sound?
2. What do they look like?
3. How much do you play?
4. When was the last time you changed them?
5. What kind of strings are they?
