About Guitar & Bass Strings

Everything about strings: what the gauge numbers mean, what separates the D’Addario ranges, how scale length changes a bass set, and how to change a set so the guitar still holds tuning at the end of the night. Every specification quoted comes from the manufacturer’s own published data.
