Greetings to the List,

  

Please excuse my ignorance but I have been wondering why some manufacturers
use hexagonal steel wire as their core wire in making their bass strings and
others use round steel wire?  What are the advantages/disadvantages in using
either steel wire as the core for making bass strings?

Thank you,

Mark
