Strings (Also Made in the USA): This string set is voiced explicitly for 3-string cigar box guitars (CBGs) that you want to tune in an "Open G" (GBD) or "standard guitar" (GBE - the three highest-pitch strings of a standard 6-string guitar) tuning. Open G is an excellent setup for slide (fretless) playing, and the standard hotsell guitar tuning is unique for a fretted instrument - you can play the "top" portion of most guitar chords with just a couple of fingers! These are medium -gauge strings, are better for instruments that can be played heavily if you want a more robust sound.
