*GUITAR STRING CLEANERS*
.
-[guitar string gauges] are measure in [1/1000 inch]-
(string circumference)
[00.1 inch] = [0.0254 milli-meters]
[0.0254 milli-meters] = [0.0000254 meters]
.
(’12-gauge E4 string’ = 0.3048 mm)
(‘highest pitched string’ on ‘standard acoustic guitar’)
.
(’54-gauge E2 string’ = 1.3716 mm)
(‘lowest pitched string’ on ‘standard acoustic guitar’)
.
*they’ll all fit inside a standard ‘2.1 mm inner diameter barrel jack’*
.
-a string is the [vibrating element] that produces [sound] in [string instruments] such as the [guitar / harp / piano (piano wire), and members of the [violin family]-
.
Strings are lengths of a flexible material that a musical instrument holds under tension so that they can vibrate freely, but controllably
.
strings may be…
“plain”
(consisting only of a single material, like [steel / nylon / gut])
.
“wound”
having a “core” of one material and an over-winding of another
.
This is to make the string vibrate at the desired pitch, while maintaining a low profile and sufficient flexibility for playability.
The invention of wound strings, such as nylon covered in wound metal, was a crucial step in string instrument technology, because a metal-wound string can produce a lower pitch than a catgut string of similar thickness.
This enabled stringed instruments to be made with less thick bass strings.
On string instruments that the player plucks or bows directly (e.g., double bass), this enabled instrument makers to use thinner strings for the lowest-pitched strings, which made the lower-pitch strings easier to play.
.
(on stringed instruments in which the player presses a keyboard, causing a mechanism to strike the strings, such as a piano, this enabled piano builders to use shorter, thicker strings to produce the lowest-pitched bass notes, enabling the building of smaller upright pianos designed for ‘small rooms’ + ‘practice rooms’)
