Classical guitar strings are mainly made out of nylon. Different thickness of the strings allows for differences in tension. Today, string makers are also experimenting with a mixture of carbon and nylon which allows for thinner strings and adds more clarity to the tone. Carbon strings tend to be brighter in tone than the pure nylon strings. Bass strings (lower three strings in a set) have the same nylon core, but they are additionally wrapped with a silver-plated coper wire. Electric guitar strings use the similar process, but with steel instead of nylon. There is a great video on Discovery/Science channel website ("How it's made") that shows the entire process of making steel strings for guitar.
