Strings

Strings are an integral part of the guitar, like any other plucked instrument. Musical instruments, which are based on strings, are called strings. For the first time, people began to use strings in ancient times. Then, our distant ancestors made them mainly from tendons and cut intestines of animals. Primitive man noticed that a stretched thread emits a sound of different power and timbre, depending on the strength with which it is pinched, as well as on the strength with which it was pulled. Epochs, countries, empires and musical tastes have changed, but the property of the string discovered by primitive man remains to this day. The tension, as well as the material from which the string is made, are of primary importance in sound production. In different periods of time, strings were made from different materials, improving every time. Nowadays, musical instrument manufacturers have almost completely abandoned the use of materials obtained from slaughtered animals. Indeed, metals and synthetic materials are more humane to obtain, they are more reliable, and their sound does not depend so much on weather conditions and temperature changes. All guitar strings can be roughly divided into two categories - synthetic (usually nylon) and metal. The former is always advised to take for novice guitarists and those who play the classical guitar . Well, metal strings are widely used in pop, jazz and, of course, rock music. Musicians playing in these styles appreciate metal strings, primarily for their "sonorousness". By the way, metal strings, in turn, are divided into the so-called "naked" and twisted. The difference is that "naked" strings are strings made from a solid piece of metal. And twisted strings are wound.
