Does anyone know of any brands selling packs of strings for pedal steel that come with a 12 for the 3rd string rather than an 11? I use pure nickel GHS strings and can’t find nickel 12s in bulk to replace the 11s that the packs come with. Any advice would be appreciated!

All unwound/plain strings are steel. The nickel refers to the wrapped/wound strings only.

I use Live Steel Strings, and they will substitute gauges.

Thank you for the reminder Howard. I forgot about that… think I was confused because GHS has nickel wound vs “pure nickel”.

Strings By Mail sells bulk single strings, they are a really good company to order from.

SIT offers a .012 PG (pedal guitar) string. I buy them as singles from JustStrings when I order sets.
