Hi people. I am going to give a clapton coil build a go next week, as I play electric guitar and am due some new strings. I usually buy a few packs at a time, so one can go to a clapton coil.
Thing is, most guitar stringer are nickel, is this a safe metal to be using? Should I be going for steel strings, these are less common but you can get them.
I might even try a burton coil (After Cliff Burton, heard it on here, and he played bass on one of my favourite songs by metallica, master of puppets. He sadly passed away on the master of puppets tour in the 80's though when their tour bus crashed. It would of been Kirk Hammett that died, but they drew cards that night for who would get the bed and whos up front, Cliff drew a higher card then Kirk, so he got the bed. I always wonder what the band would be with a better lear guitarist) Which would be even thicker string.
First off though I just want to make sure they are safe, as they are guitar strings and aren't really designed for vaping, Les paul would be turning in his grave if he knew we was using strings for this lol
EDIT: I watched a few videos before, but due to my memory loss I could not remember which type of string was needed. I know know you remove the actual string and replace with kanthal, so It is all Kanthal! What a donut.
