Behold, the rise of the String Thing: from the depths of the underground scene, the wildest pits of the darkest basement shows, he rises as a three-dimensional guitar string recycling figure. 1.5 million pounds of used strings are sent to landfills each year. Summon the String Thing to do you part in the fight against string waste and breathe new life into your dead strings.

Each String Thing is your own unique creation, so have fun with it and get creative. Don't forget to share your progress #StringThingLives
