Collection: Guitar Strings

Guitar strings have a rich history dating back to ancient civilizations. The earliest forms of stringed instruments can be traced to ancient Mesopotamia around 2000 BCE. These instruments evolved over time, with strings made from animal intestines, silk, and gut. The modern steel-string guitar emerged in the late 19th century, with steel wire replacing gut strings. In the 20th century, innovations led to the development of various materials for strings, including nylon and nickel-plated steel. Today, guitar strings are made from a range of materials, offering diverse tones and playing styles, while continually evolving to meet the needs of musicians.
