I'm using a modified version of something supplied by Harold Conklin. which
he describes thus:

One expression for Zg is: Zg
= (number of strings per note) x
(tension x mass per unit length)^0.5.
So we can increase Zg by increasing
the tension, core size, wrap size,
number of strings per note, any or all.
