12-string Guitar Strings

Restore shimmer, depth, and rich harmonic texture with 12-String Guitar Strings, specially designed to handle the unique tension and paired-string setup of 12-string guitars. The right strings are essential for maintaining tuning stability, balanced tension, comfortable playability, and the signature chorus-like sound that defines a 12-string instrument.

This category includes phosphor bronze, 80/20 bronze, coated, and light-tension 12-string guitar string sets, suitable for both acoustic and electric 12-string guitars. Phosphor bronze strings deliver warm, full tone with strong low-end response, while 80/20 bronze strings provide brighter sparkle and clarity. Coated options help extend string life and maintain tone consistency, especially in humid environments.

12-string guitar strings are widely used in folk, rock, worship, ambient, pop, and singer-songwriter music, where lush harmonic richness and wide sonic presence are desired. Lighter gauge sets are often preferred to reduce neck stress and finger fatigue, while balanced or medium gauges offer greater volume and projection for performance.

Modern 12-string sets are engineered for even tension across all string pairs, accurate intonation, reduced breakage, and stable tuning, helping players manage the additional complexity of 12 tuning machines and doubled strings. Many sets are optimized to make restringing easier and improve long-term reliability.

12-string guitar strings are commonly paired with 12-string guitars, capos, tuners, string winders, humidifiers, and protective cases, forming a dependable setup for both stage and studio use.

From subtle shimmer to bold, resonant depth, 12-string guitar strings provide the foundation of tone, balance, and playability that every 12-string guitarist relies on.
