The Hat Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 Beginner question alert ! What's with the coloured material I sometimes see on the ends of some strings, usually red ? Quote
EssentialTension Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 (edited) Usually referred to as silk, it's a way of protecting the windings as they get smaller for the tuning post or bridge. It's not essential and some strings don't have any silk. There are many different colours. Edited February 18, 2016 by EssentialTension Quote
