Piano Music Wire & Bass Strings FAQ's - Howard Piano Industries

Q. What are the different types of wire used for? A. We offer two different types of wire on our store, plain wire and bass strings. Plain piano music wire is for the treble range of the piano and comes in different sizes (​sizes 13-21). ​Sizes 0-12 of our plain music wire cannot be used on a piano, but are sometimes used on other instruments. These wires can be purchased in ​10' lengths as well as ​1/4lb coils, ​1/2lb coils, ​1/3lb coils, ​1lb coils, and as assortments. All of the plain wire is made of steel. Bass strings are made specifically for use in the bass range of the piano. These strings are made of a steel wire with copper winding around it. There are two types of bass strings: custom bass strings and universal bass strings.
