The Assembly Of Guitar Strings

By Phil Zertisky

Strings are vibrating elements that produce the sounds in string instruments. There are many types of string instruments including pianos, violins, and guitars. Guitar strings are flexible lengths of material that is kept under tension so that although it may vibrate freely yet controllable.

These strings can come in two different forms. One form is that of plain strings, meaning these strings are made from one type of material. There are also strings that are referred to as "wound". These strings have a core center made up of a single material such as steel, and wound with a second type of material or materials such as nylon or gut.

Although some strings are marketed to be steel, in actuality steel strings are made up from bronze, nickel, and other alloys that incorporate steel into them. There are even some strings that are made from plant and animal products, polymers, and metal. Bass guitars use strings that are made from wound polymer materials that are bigger gauged then regular strings.

There are numerous varieties of wound strings. There are round wound strings, which are the simplest of all strings. These strings are made up of two parts. A round or hex core on the inside with round wire winding tightly in a spiral around the core; make up these round wound strings. These strings are not only easy and simple to make and manufacture, but are also cheap to purchase.

As the old saying goes, "you get what you pay for". Due to the fact that these strings are so cheap to make and purchase, and are not made like more complex strings, they have to be replaced more frequently. These round wound strings are known to have bumps on their surface that is known to cause friction and squeaking when a player slides their fingers along their surfaces. These types of strings are also known for having round cores which means that the winding is not secured to the core and can rotate freely around it.

The most preferred type of guitar strings used is known as flat wound strings. These strings contain either a round or a hex core, but are more comfortable to use because they do not have bumpy surfaces. Flat wound strings also reduce squeaking noises and distortion when a player slides their fingers across them, which makes the tones and pitches produced by them more clear and rich.

Keep in mind that not all guitars are the same. This means that not all guitars take the same type of strings. All strings do however share some of the same type of materials needed in order to make them. Bronze for instance is one of the most commonly used elements for the winding of strings. In some instances silver and gold are used as well, but tend to be more costly. These types of materials are both hypoallergenic and also are resistant to corrosion.

As do most things that are metal or made with metal, guitar strings offer a unique problem because they are susceptible to corrosion and oxidation. Wound strings of any metallic type will eventually corrode due to exposure of moisture and salts from players fingers. Unfortunately due to this exposure, metallic made strings not only will loose their shine but will eventually break as well. Recently in order to combat corrosion, manufacturing companies have began applying a metal plating or polymer coating in order to better protect the strings from normal wear and tear and corrosion. - 18762
