User questions & answers

Question:	I bought balanced tension 9-40. I received regular 9-42s
Answer:	Some sellers don't exactly know what balanced tension strings are so they probably though you just wanted 9's
Question:	stings included in 1 package or just 1 string
Answer:	The strings are sold in sets of 6 strings. A set of strings for a guitar contains 6 strings... Some music stores sell individual strings, but these strings are sold in full sets of 6. Each string set includes 6 strings: one each of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th string (each string is a different gauge). For example: 1-pack: contains 1 set of 6 strings 3-pack: contains 3 sets of 6 strings (each of the 3 sets contains 6 strings) 10-pack: contains 10 sets of 6 strings (each of the 10 sets contains 6 strings) In other words, if you purchase the 3-pack, you will get 3 full sets of all 6 strings!
Question:	What does 3D mean
Answer:	It is just D'Addario's (SKU) way of naming the strings, it's a 3-pack of strings. Their single packs are EXL-110 and the three-pack is just EXL-110-3D.Thanks, Jason
Question:	Would this work on a les paul special p
Answer:	Shure thing man it will work on almost everyguitar. The only exeption would be if you were playing a really low tuning these string might not be tight enough hope that helps
