What strings are fitted on my guitar?

Over time, we have used a few different brands, but generally with the same gauges.

We currently use the following strings on all production models (for tensions and scale lengths, see below):

• 6-string: D'Addario NYXL 10 - 46 (10 - 13 - 17 - 26 - 36 - 46)
• 7-string: D'Addario NYXL Optimized for .strandberg* 9.5 - 64 (9.5 - 13 - 16 - 24 - 34 - 46 - 64)
• 8-string: D'Addario NYXL Optimized for .strandberg* 9 - 84 (9 - 12 - 15 - 22 - 30 - 42 - 56 - 84)

The original Boden OS guitars (6- and 7-strings 2014-2015) where fitted with:

• 6-string: D'Addario XL10 - 46
• 7-string: D'Addario XL 10 - 46 + 59
• 7-string Singularity, regular frets and True Temperament, GHS 9 - 56 (9 - 11 - 16 - 24 - 32 - 42 - 56)

When we introduced the Boden OS 8, i.e. from 2015, we changed to to:

• 6-string: D'Addario XL 10 - 46
