La Bella RPG-1856 Acoustic Resophonic Guitar Strings, G Tuning 18-56

The La Bella RPG-1856 acoustic resophonic guitar strings are designed for open G tuning in a heavy 18-56 gauge. This extra-heavy gauge set provides high tension that really drives the resonator cone hard, producing maximum volume and sustain. Open G tuning is one of the most popular configurations for blues and roots slide guitar on resonators.

The 18-gauge high string might seem extreme for standard guitar, but on a resonator guitar played primarily with a slide, heavier strings provide the resistance the bar needs for clean, singing sustain without buzzing or rattling. These phosphor bronze strings deliver a bold, powerful tone that fills a room. Blues players, Dobro pickers, and anyone who plays slide on a resonator will appreciate the authority and presence of this heavy-gauge set. Built for players who want their resonator to roar.
