forget it , why do you think all the pro,s over the last 100 years use brass because its the best , your little guitar string is no comparison , waken up son , it would be alright if you were stuck with nothing else , but one of these pegged rabbit snares , with the double knot , can hold up to 30 rabbits before it needs replacing . with steel wire your getting one , and another thing is that picture wire is pure shite also , and it is only rank amateurs that play around with it , if you want to be good at this game forget all the nonsense,, and elevate yourself .
