Review: Great guitar strings - These are great guitar strings. I personally love these, and I think they're of great quality. I got a 3 pack, and have gone through two: one on a brand new Stratocaster, and one on a vintage 60's Kent Lido. Both have held up amazingly, and sound really good. The package doesn't lie: They are slinky, but just the right amount. I'm able to comfortably pull off bends. I'm also able to tune from E standard to drop D and not have to retune almost at all, which is nice.
Review: Good enough for Clapton - Nice and Brite sounding. Hard to go wrong with Ernie ball strings. If its good enough for Clapton to use sometimes I dont see why they would be anything other than great. The 3 pack is found was a great value

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why are these ranked #1 in the category "Fishing" ?**
A: When a company puts a product in some obscure category, they can get the "best seller" icon when they inevitably get more sales than the other products in that category. That's how you end up searching for something like "guitar strings", and multiple products show up as the #1 seller. Why Amazon still allows this after all these years, I will never know.

**Q: Do all 6 strings come in the "1 pack"?**
A: If you note on the front of the package, it has a list of numbers (10, 13, 17, 26, 36, 46 on the "Regular Slinky" set, and similar on others). These are the string gauges included in the pack. If there were only one string in the pack, it would list a single number, because you'd have to know which string it was.

**Q: what is the difference between slinky and non slinky?**
A: Slinky is just a line of strings from Ernie Ball, the "Slinkier" they are the thinner they are, regular Slinky are 10 gauge strings, super slinky are 9s, and "Not Even Slinky" strings are 12s (the number represents the gauge of the lightest string in the set).

**Q: I'm looking for extra strings for my new Les Paul Special II. I'm buing guitar from amazon, it costs $149. Are this strings compatible?**
A: Short answer, yes they should be fine. Long answer, the comparability between strings and guitars doesnt matter, its the string slots that in the nut that matter. The les Paul's usually use bigger strings anyway.
