GHS PF500 E9

Great E9 strings

For a (more or less) standard E9 pedal steel copedant these GHS are great! I love the half round wind for less bar noise, and they really last a long time before the intonation starts to go. I've not broken a single third string on either of my steels (EMCI and Excel) in about three years of using these pretty much daily - I like them a lot :)

GHS PF500 E9 String Set for Pedal Steel

Good quality, fair price, suits for me.

Great strings!

These are my "go to" strings. You can't go wrong with these! The sound is great and they have a decent durability. I have not broken that many of the G# (0.11) strings that are a pretty common issue with other Pedal Steel strings. The strings are halfwound which reduces a lot of friction when sliding your tonebar across the neck and it also helps with reducing a lot of unwanted noise and rattle. These strings sound good with both singlecoil and humbucker pickups.

I recommend these strings to anyone playing the Pedal Steel Guitar and want a set of strings that they can rely on.
