SIT Non-Pedal Lap Steel Strings, Semi Flat 6-String

Description

Lap steel players know the wrong string set can make a killer riff sound thin or clangy. SIT built this Non-Pedal Lap Steel set with a semi-flat wrap over hard-tempered hex cores, giving you a rounder, mellower voice than standard round-wound strings without losing definition on slants and slides.

These are the same nickel-plated “Stay-In-Tune” strings that built SIT’s reputation — the hex core locks the winding down tight, so you get less tuning drift and more time actually playing instead of retuning between takes. That stability matters even more on a lap steel, where open tunings and constant bar movement can pull a lesser set out of whack fast.

Every set feels different the moment it’s on the instrument versus a worn-out one sitting on your steel for months — strings that have lost their snap start to sound dull and choke your slides. Swap in a fresh semi-flat set and notice the sustain come back, the harmonics ring clearer, and that smooth-under-the-bar feel return.

• Gauges: .015(E) .018(B) .022P(G#) .030SL(E) .034SL(D) .038SL(B)
• Semi-flat, nickel-plated wrap over hard-tempered hex core
