I started out a thread to get to know a few places, http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/new-members-forum/543927-where-buy-wick-wire.html

Cheapest here, Kanthal A1 AWG Gauge 26 28 30 32 34 Sizes 25' 50'100' 250' 500' 100' Best Price | eBay

Even if you could, why would you want to? Round A-1 Kanthal is inexpensive and widely available. I wouldn't think guitar string would be very conductive.

I vaped my high E-string last week. It didn't burn well, and my Stairway to Heaven solo suffered too.

Uhh... if you really must know... err... Yes. It's called the "clapton coil"... here's a link to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMirb8MlsWk

As for using the actual string for making a coil out of as apposed to using it to wrap a coil around, No I don't think you will be happy with the end result. It will have very low resistance if any aka just create a short. If you can't wait to get some kanthal or nichrome wire you can rip the wire out of your toaster or hair dryer lol. Anything other than resistant wire will pretty much just short out your device.

May have an inventive idea, a combo pv and jaw harp. A vape dinger

Guitar strings are coated heavily with anti-corrosion chemicals. I wouldn't go near it if I were me.

Also, they're not very "bendy."

Wouldn't work, I'm afraid.

Kenthal is so cheap why would you want too, really? I give $1 for 4 feet of the stuff.

You pay too much.

Last Kanthal I bought I paid just under $10 for 100 feet. Bought spools of 26, 28, and 30 gauge at that price. I'll be building coils for years before I need more.

I hear ya! I should probably pick up a spool, I'm sure it would be cheaper that way

$7.75 for 100 feet

Nylon guitar strings would definitely make "sick smoke". I suggest scavenging a violin bow first, then nylon, before attempting steel strings. There is a learning curve to this stuff you know...
