## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there a difference in spound between the .11 ans .12? i usually use two packs of .11's would there be a lot of difference in pressure with .12's?**
A: I gave up on these... I spent too much money popping strings then went to a cheap alternative after much study and thus I've been playing nonstop without any breaks and they sound Grrrreat as Tony the Tiger would say.  I switched to the Ernie Ball Earthwood Medium Lights and they are ROCK SOLID.  Money well spent, much cheaper, and they sound great in the DAW.  I can't say Elixir is better, because these sound great and they are lasting way longer... I play 5 hours a day 7 days a week, and they are holding up like Alabama Roll Tide!  :)  God Bless.

**Q: I was putting new strings on my martin 00028ec and the g string broke before i even got it tight enough to tune. is this common?**
A: My first set one did the same thing.  Don’t cut the strings until a day later these are very delicate after second tuning. They play so soft and have great sound.  Very little string buzz or finger wear.

**Q: Can I put these on an electric guitar?**
A: These are acoustic guitar strings, so I don't recommend it. I've never tried to put acoustic strings on an electric. You should buy electric guitar strings.

**Q: Does this special three pack come with three packs of normals string or octaves?**
A: I’m pretty sure it’s just 3 sets of normal strings
