8 String Guitar

Strings for an 8-string Guitar

Do you rely on extra strings to create the sounds you’re listening for? Pick up an 8-string guitar string set from Strings and Beyond. First widely used in the 1960s by jazz guitarist Ralph Patt to accommodate his major-third tuning, the eight-string guitar gives you even more range than a seven-string and allows for a variety of non-standard tunings. From classical guitarist Paul Galbraith to metal bands like Deftones and Emperor, many musicians have adopted the eight-string guitar.

To play it correctly, though, you’ll need the right strings. Our catalog includes 8-string electric guitar and acoustic guitar strings from top brands such as Ernie Ball, DR and Elixir. Multiple gauges are available, including medium and heavy 8-string sets. You can get coated strings if you want the maximum lifespan. Want to create a personalized setup? Order single guitar strings to get the ideal sound and feel.

8-string Ukulele Strings

Strings and Beyond also has an assortment of strings for eight-string ukuleles. Think of them as the equivalent of a 12-string guitar where each regular string is doubled and multiple strings have octaves, producing a richer and more distinct sound. Order Worth or Aquila eight-string ukulele strings for tenor or baritone ukes. Different nylon types are available, too.

Stock up on your favorite eight-string instrument strings or discover a new favorite. Our low prices mean you can try out strings until you find the ones you prefer. Most orders placed by 2:00 p.m. ET ship the same business day so you get your new strings fast.
