Daddario Strings What grade of steel are stainless steel guitar strings manufactured from?
I'm doing a college project on vibrating guitar strings and their mode shapes/harmonics etc. I just need to know what steel grades are usually used for the strings, I'm dealing with a plain, uncoiled G string so no need to talk about string coilings. A general answer would be great, but if it helps here is the exact string I'm testing: http://store.daddario.com/category/152831/Plain_Steel_Singles
(Item # PL017). Thanks very much.
See http://www.guitar2ner.com/guitar-tips/guitar-strings-overview.php There is a reference to d'Addario magnetic stainless steel strings.
Ordinary plug/jack connections can become unstable, resulting in annoying static and signal loss. Plus, many cables offer little protection at the soldering points, causing premature failure. Planet Waves cables have special compression springs that allow the plug to positively lock into the jack, elimination any annoying static...

D'Addario Strings
do i have to change all of my strings?
a string of my guitar snapped and it was a fender then i bought a new one but the brand was DAddario do i have to change all of my strings if one isnt of the same brand?
As you already know, you can definitely buy single strings. Tonal characteristics may vary a little between brands, but there's no other reason not to mix brands. Most music stores only carry one brand of individual replacement strings, so it's pretty much unavoidable. Try to make sure the string gauge is the same as the one you're replacing.
If your old strings have been on the guitar more than a couple of months, it's time to change the entire set. You'll notice a marked improvement in the brightness with new strings. Contrary to what you might hear, you won't damage your neck by removing the strings all at once. That's a total myth that gets spread by well meaning people who *think* they know what they're talking about. The best reason to replace the strings one-at-a-time is so that you'll have reference notes to re-tune to. Replace one, tune it back up: then replace the next, repeat. Once in a while, you may want to remove all the strings just to clean under them.
Addario Guitar Strings What are the best strings for my guitar?!?
I have an Epiphone SJ-200 acoustic guitar and I recently bought D'Addario Medium EXP17 strings for them. After less than a month of using them on my guitar they broke while I was tuning them and they never held the tune very well.
Does anyone know of any guitar strings that I should buy that work amazingly?
Thanks!
I use and recommend Elixir Nanoweb light gauge acoustic strings.

Daddario Strings Is changing strings different with a thicker guage?
I bought some daddario 12-52 strings for my electric, and I cannot get them to go on. They're really buzzy and the D string keeps springing out of the nut. Help?!?
What gauge are you starting from?
More than a .001" step in gauge may require that the guitar get a new set-up. The string changing procedure is the same, but you will have to have the truss rod tightened, and possibly have the nut slots widened.
Sounds like you are not even close to getting them to tension, before threading the string in the post you need to pull out as much slack as you can, or else you will be turning the winder forever.
