Steel - I did research on this guitar before my purchase and I can tell you the guitar is a great buy and sound is warm. Check out all the reviews on line virtually no one has anything bad to say. Go for it you'll love it and it will give you years of pleasure.

Anywhere, Amazon if you like. There are so many styles to choose from. It all depends on personal sound and comfort preference. This model will take steel strings. Other smaller models will only take nylon. I found that silk and nickle wound strings are gentle on little fingers.

I have always used metal strings... but I don't see why it would not work with nylon strings... might have to turn volume up more...I do know that it works very well with my guitar.. some say better than the Dean Markley I have had for 35 years....

Congrats on receiving one! They look steel, but they are nylon. Well at least mine were nylon, you can tell by the sound if you're familiar with steel string as well as the end's near the sound hole. For new players, steel string "cut" into your fingers much more than nylon. Have fun!

Steel strings.... Really a nice guitar and great tone. I would highly recommend!

Yes, you can string this guitar with nylon strings. It is braced for steel strings, so you might not get the optimum sound out of it. Rule of thumb is this: you can re-string any steel string guitar with nylon strings. However, guitars braced for nylon strings (which provide less tension on the body and neck) may not be able to support the increased tension of steel strings. I hope this helps... Good luck and keep on rockin'!!

We have steel strings. The strings that come with the guitar are fine. My in-laws (the martin family band) were in the house the other day and upgraded the strings which definitely improved the tone (richer) and reduced the necessary finger pressure on the frets.This guitar is primarily used by my 15 year old daughter who has small hands.

I'm not 100% positive but I think this is a magnetic pick up and I don't think it will work with nylon strings.

Yes the high strings are steel however the low strings are nickleplated steel as it adds to a more bassier tone. Hope that helped :)

Violin strings are more complicated to manufacture than guitar and ukulele strings. Most of the time, guitar and ukulele strings are steel strings and, occasionally nylon. Violin strings are made out of much more costly materials, such as, aluminum, tungsten, silver etc. Also, a lot of higher quality violin strings are actually hand-made!

Yes, they aren't steel strings, rather metal wound nylon strings that look like steel. I hope you enjoy your guitarlele!

This was designed to be a STEEL STRING guitar. Personally, if I were looking for a classical NYLON STRING guitar for around $100.00, then I would look at a HOHNER, they make good quality instruments.

I've used it on my Yamaha classical guitar, and it works pretty well. I believe it works better on your standard, steel string acoustic guitars; but, yes it works with nylon strings. Hope that helps. R. Logan satisfied customer

This is a steel string guitar. It looks very similar to a classical nylon string

All steel/electric strings as it is an electric guitar. The nylon strings aren't detected by the pickups.

there are strings designed for this instrument but you can experiment on regular nylon strings. i've never tried it.

Regular steel strings. It is a nice set, however, mine didn't come with extra strings. But it is still a great value.
