E9th Pedal Steel Strings








non-pedal C6th U-12 Singles

The 10-string E9th pedal steel copedent makes extreme demands on guitar strings. In recent years, many steel guitarists have turned to the Jagwire String company to meet their needs. We offer a wide selection of Jagwire strings in specially gauged sets that have been endorsed by famous name players.

Most steel guitarists prefer nickel wound strings, but some prefer the long-lasting brightness of stainless steel wounds. Note that the difference between nickel and stainless only affects the wound strings. It is the alloy used for the windings.

Jagwire .011 and .0115 plains strings are designated with an "ST" for "Short Twist". Regarding these ST strings, Danny Hullihen of Jagwire says: "We've shortened the twist .060ths to give more string contact, thus longer life, better tone, just a better string."

In our Jagwire prepackaged sets, please feel free to substitute a gauge or two if a set doesn't quite meet your needs. The list of available gauges can be found on the singles page. Sorry, but no substitutions are available in the SIT or GHS sets.

Please note: There is no shipping charge within the USA.
For international orders, please add $2 per set for shipping.

Paul Franklin - Artist Series
Nickel E9th

Paul Franklin is probably the busiest session steel guitarist in Nashville. His artistry can be heard on countless hit records and album tracks. Paul writes: "After some lengthy experimentation with nearly every brand out there, I have chosen the Jagwire String. I believe it is the best of the best. The string guages I now use on the E9th are a little different. I found that these guages deliver a more warm and balanced tone quality to my copedent than the lighter guages used for the E and G# strings."

Notice that his high strings are quite heavy. The wound strings in this set are nickel.
