Bajo Sexto

can i use guitar strings for a bajo sexto?
if i can, what strings on which note?
You can buy a regular set of strings for a 12 string guitar, but you’ll have to tune it differently. If you do that, you’ll basically tune it the same way as a 12 string guitar. Bajo sextos are traditionally tuned one octave lower than guitars, and each string is tuned from low to high: E A D G C F instead of E A D G B E. If you want to tune it the right way, guitar strings will be way too light, and they’ll just rattle all over the place. You should be able to find bajo sexto strings at some music stores, or online.
