La Bella H6C6-1532 Hawaiian Lap Steel Guitar Strings, C6 Tuning 15-32

The La Bella H6C6-1532 strings are designed specifically for six-string Hawaiian lap steel guitar in C6 tuning with a 15-32 gauge range. Lap steel strings have very different requirements than standard guitar strings because the playing technique uses a steel bar rather than fretted fingering, and open tunings create unique tension demands across the set.

C6 tuning is the most popular standard tuning for Hawaiian lap steel, producing the warm, dreamy chord voicings that define the Hawaiian steel guitar sound. These strings are gauged to provide balanced tension in C6 tuning so each string responds evenly to the bar. Whether you play traditional Hawaiian music, Western swing, country, or pedal-less steel in a band setting, the H6C6 set gives you the correct string setup for authentic lap steel tone. Purpose-built strings for a purpose-built instrument.
