Currently Playing: History of Guitar Strings (With Ernie Ball)

We all know guitar string extraordinaire Ernie Ball. In this week's episode, Josh sits down with his grandson Brian Ball to find out just how guitar strings are made. Because (to quote fellow string-maker Rudolf Smuntz) "a world without string is chaos."
