The sound produced is dependent upon the mass and tuning tension of the string. Thicker, heavier strings produce lower pitch tones than thinner, lighter strings that produce higher pitch. The higher the frequency of the vibration of a string, the higher the pitch of the sound produced. Thicker strings, being heavier and larger, vibrate slower, producing a lower pitch. Nylon strings are light, but their softness absorbs energy, making their vibration last for less time -- thus shorter "sustain" and a thinner sound.
