No, they are steel. It is a very nice guitar! My son loves playing it and it sounds great!

This pickup does NOT work for nylon string guitars. The pickup is magnetic, and requires interaction of steel strings to produce sound. You may get a small amount of sound from the metal wound strings, but none at all from the nylon strings.

I don't know what kind of strings but they are decent. If you are new to the guitar, you will probably want to replace them with some light gauge 'silk and steel' strings, which will be easier on your fingers.

Yes, they are steel strings. Rather unusual feeling ones at that. But don't let that discourage you, they sound absolutely lovely!

No, most nylon string guitars do not use a truss rod in the neck and the HC06 is no exeption. You can put nylon strings on a steel string guitar, but you can't put steel strings on a nylon string guitar because the construction is lighter. You can warp or twist a nylon string neck if using incorrect stringing methods.

No.I know of no nylon string that has ball ends.They need to be looped and knotted unlike the steel strings on my electric guitar.

I believe the strings that come with the guitar are composite core with brass wrapping. I suggest buying new strings, as a few of mine had some damage, and were already stretched from being on the guitar, out of tune.

this guitar comes with steel strings ,which are correct for this type of instrument. Nylon stings are normally found on classical guitars

No, nylon strings will not work on this guitar. The nut slots are cut for steel strings and the guitar is designed and braced for steel strings. While you could install nylon strings, they would not vibrate the top sufficiently to sound good. If you want a nylon string guitar there are plenty of inexpensive classical guitars available. Those will be designed to sound good with nylon strings.

The strings are nylgut strings not nylon as a guitar....they are certainly lighter. I don't know if they are gauged. Due to the C tuning on my ukulele the C string is the heaviest gauge then the E then the A then the G. Pop in the a music store and check them out many ukulele's have Aquila strings on the instrument when purchased.

They are steel strings. The guitar is a steel string guitar. It comes with a set on the guitar and also an additional pack. My pack of extra strings was the same as the picture, manufactured by Yamaha.

Absolutely. You only want to put nylon strings on a classical. This set is excellent, by the way. They will be a little harder to install, but I think there are instructions in this set, or just look around the internet for instructions to show you how. They don't have a little "ball" on the end like regular guitar strings. You have to do a special "knot" on the bridge of the guitar. Don't worry, its "knot" as complicated as it sounds :) Happy playing!

The strings are nylon,as on any traditional classical guitar.If you try and fit steel strings to it you will damage the appearance and structure of the instrument.It's a good instrument for the money.

The strings are a decent quality nylon. I haven't tried the Aquilas everyone talks about, so I can't compare tone quality. But I haven't noticed any problems with them. As with all strings, regardless of quality, it takes a day or two for them to stretch out. After that, just the normal tune up is required.

It has 3 steel strings (real ones) and 3 nylon strings. I am a beginner, but I bought this guitar more than a year ago (I think). It has an excellent sound and for what it's worth...I highly recommend it!
