Let's spread some musical misinformation

Oh, sure, that is what the gubbermint wants you to believe. It is an antenna for communication with the aliens that control the lizards that operate the world government with the consent of the illuminati. Flat wound strings counter the antenna and this is the real reason that you should play with flats.

Do your part by wearing the right hat on stage.

Question: Does the number of strings matter?
 
Of course. But I have said too much already. A hint; the correct number of strings includes a fraction.
At first I thought a prime number might be preferred, so five. Now that you mention a fraction, I'm thinking of a number that still hasn't been calculated to the last digit. :eek: The one and only pi: 3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105820974944592307816406286...

Devo-style headgear also works.
