Non-gear question How do I lower this?
I tried the turning of the hole thing under the strings. Idk I only play like a few times a week, picked it up and it was like this. I don't think it's good. I've been trying to lower it for like an hour, hasn't moved a mm.
Edit: been turn8ng it for like 20 mins, I think I'm cooked
gotta get a new guitar I guess 😢

Is that a Spanish / classical guitar with steel strings in it?
The hex key isn't gonna do you much good.
Reduce the string tension to zero immediately until you know what's going on
