How are electric guitar strings made?

The electric guitar strings are made by a process called winding. The process begins with a steel core that is wrapped with a thin wire. This wire is then wrapped with another layer of wire, and this process is repeated until the desired thickness is reached. The number of layers of wire determines the gauge of the string. Once the desired gauge is reached, the string is then cut to the desired length.
