Run your finger over a guitar string wedding band and you'll feel it immediately, the same tight, ridged wind of an actual string, not an engraving or a printed pattern. It's a real string, sealed into the ring permanently. Here's what to know before you buy one.

What Are Guitar String Wedding Bands Made Of?
Guitar string wedding bands use genuine wound guitar strings, set as an inlay and sealed to protect the wound texture from unwinding or wearing down. That texture stays visible and touchable in the finished ring, giving it a distinct ridged look immediately recognizable to anyone who's ever changed a set of strings themselves.
How Are Guitar String Rings Built?
Guitar string is set within a durable tungsten core and, in every ring in our collection, paired with a second accent material for a layered look. Real combinations include:
-
Guitar String + Koa Wood – Silver tungsten, wound string texture against warm Hawaiian wood grain
-
Guitar String + Whiskey Barrel Wood – Black or silver tungsten, several variants including a domed black tungsten option
-
Guitar String + Meteorite – Rose gold tungsten with 24K gold leaf accents
-
Guitar String + Whiskey Barrel + Abalone – Black tungsten, a three-material combination for a rugged, layered look

Guitar String Ring Sizing Guide
Guitar string inlay rings size the same as standard metal bands.
-
Use your normal ring size as a starting point
-
Because the inlay isn't resizable the way solid metal is, accurate sizing before ordering matters
-
Not sure of your size? Select "Request Ring Sizer" at checkout, your order is placed, but we'll send a sizer first and confirm your exact fit before your ring is made
-
Or use our ring size guide to measure yourself directly
How to Care for a Guitar String Wedding Band
The wound string is sealed to prevent unwinding or wear. Remove your ring before swimming, showering, or heavy manual labor, avoid harsh chemicals, and clean with a soft, dry cloth only. For the full breakdown, see our complete wedding band care guide.
Is a Guitar String Wedding Band Right for You?
This style suits musicians, music teachers, lifelong fans, or anyone who wants their wedding band to reflect a real passion rather than a generic material. If music has shaped your life in a meaningful way, a guitar string wedding band is a subtle but powerful way to carry that into your marriage.
