Waylon McPherson Guitar

30-45 (Low Compliance): The string responds quickly with minimal movement, giving a tight, immediate feel. Suits players wanting precise pitch control, but requires more finger pressure for wider bends.

45-65 (Moderate Compliance): A common baseline where the string has enough flexibility for comfortable bends, while maintaining control under heavier picking.

65-85 (High Compliance): The string moves more easily during bends, reducing effort. Increased total stretch means more travel is required to reach pitch.

85+ (Very High Compliance): Typically associated with floating tremolos. Bridge movement adds to overall string travel. Bends feel soft, but require significantly more movement to reach pitch.
