A common pickup for an electric guitar consists of a coil of wire around a small permanent magnet, as described in Figure 25.5. Why will this type of pickup fail with nylon strings?
Answered by Elena
Guitar pickups are tiny coils with magnets inside them. The magnets magnetize the steel strings. When the strings vibrate, voltage is induced in the coils and boosted by an amplifier, and sound is produced by a speaker.
