∙ 14y agoThey can be made out of several
materials / metals. There is a "Core" which is a thin solid piece of metal, and the winding around the core. Acoustics commonly use bronze, classical guitars use a nylon or a nickel wound outer shell with silk inside. These are called "Silk & Steel" sometimes. Electrics will also commonly use nickel, nickel plated steel, or stainless steel.

∙ 12y agoAcoustic guitars are classified into two main groups. Nylon string or Classical guitar, and steel string guitars.
The Classical guitar has the three thinner strings made from Nylon and the three heavier made from brass or silver wound around a steel (or sometimes nylon) core.
Steel string guitars have their top two strings made from steel wire and lower four from brass/steel core, but the number of wirewound strings can vary by guitar design or player preference. Wound strings either have a round core or hex core. The combination of metals in wound strings is prone to corrosion so may be nickel plated or polymer coated to protect the string
