GHS Strings Nashville High Tuning Acoustic Guitar Set CU-BBHT 11-20

Q: How do I string these? They arrived without any instructions, so other than the heaviest gauge and lightest gauge strings, no idea which goes where

For Nashville tuning, only the low E is wound. Lay out the non-wound strings so that they are ascending/descending in thickness i generally use what would be the G string for my low E. The high E and B are tuned to standard E (or any other key) while the four other strings are tuned to standard BUT ONE OCTAVE HIGHER! It gives it a mandolin/12 string vibe. Its a little thin by itself but throw in another guitar tuned to standard and the richness and bass tones of the standard combined with the chime of the Nashville tuning on top is magical. Sure, you can get close with a 12 string but with this, the two guitars can play completely different licks and intervals to create something more complex than a 12 string. Since you are tuned standard, just up an octave on 4 strings, all your standard chord shapes and scales remain unchanged. I don’t recommend leaving the guitar tuned to pitch in Nashville tuning as there is quite a bit of string tension when tuning an octave up. Just loosen the strings a bit between playing sessions. Have fun!
