Just picked up a Fender Deluxe 8 and I'm realizing I'm not sure which string gauges I need for C6 tuning - ACEGACEG. Will also attempt A6 with the appropriate changes, which should be fine on the same strings. Any reccomendations for a set of strings or specific guage charts? I use .034 - .015 on a six string lap steel but it is longer scale.

Here's what I use:





Column O is the Octave that the note is in.

If you like a stiffer feel use slightly bigger strings.


Here is my A6 String set for 22.5"




Good luck!
