String winding equipment is designed and built by D'Addario's engineering team, guaranteeing a production range of 500,000 to 700,000 string per day.

Digitally-controlled string winding ensure productivity, accuracy and consistency.

Wire Drawing

D'Addario's in-house wire drawing machines produce musical instrument wire to our exact specifications.

Control over materials, equipment, and quality allows us to deliver high performance products.
