It gives you twice the sound. Some folks put it on the high/melody string only. But I rarely play melody only on the high string, so I started doubling them all up. Then I hit on octave pairings, which is even better. imho. It is especially helpful to have an octave on the lower strings, because I think often the bass sound is the first one to wimp out on a small guitar made from some old box.
The forked looking thing is a winder?
Octave pairings .... two strings tuned the the same note in two different octaves.
Say you are tuned DAd. The big D is a low D the little d is the same note only an octave higher. Sometimes this technique is used with double coursed strings.
