Detail 01
Sold as a pair, not a set
Bajo sexto strings run in courses of two. One pair covers one course, so a full restring needs several packs.

GHSBSX-1 Bajo Sexto First Pair Guitar Strings
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A single pair of GHS strings for bajo sexto. Replacement stock for one course, not a full set — buy the pair you actually broke.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing one broken course mid-gig without buying a whole set
- Keeping spare pairs in a bajo sexto gig bag
- Restringing a bajo sexto course that wore out early
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who need a complete bajo sexto restring — this is one pair
- Guitarra, bajo quinto or standard guitar owners
- Anyone unsure which course they need — pairs are position-specific
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Marked "First" pair
This is the first course — the highest, thinnest pair. It will not fit the lower wound courses.
Detail 03
GHS make
Standard production string stock rather than a boutique run, so gauges stay consistent pack to pack.
Detail 04
$4.19 price
Cheap enough to stock several pairs as spares instead of replacing the whole instrument's strings each time.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01How many packs do I need to restring my bajo sexto?
One pack covers a single course. A bajo sexto has six courses, so a full restring means buying the matching pack for each position, not six of these.
02Will these fit a bajo quinto?
No. This is made for bajo sexto. Bajo quinto has a different course count and scale, so gauges and lengths won't line up.
03Is this the thin pair or a wound pair?
It's the first course — the highest and thinnest pair on the instrument.
04Can I use these on a regular guitar?
No. Bajo sexto scale and tuning differ from a six-string guitar, so tension and length won't work.
