    • There were string gauge recommendations/limitations inthe soundhole of the guitar
    • The Medium gauges are more like
    • Medium Light is a nice gauge, though a bit thick for somebody with small fingers like me (girly hands lol
    • so I like these.. great tone, and the gauges are all good.
    • I'm sure they are great on the right guitar since the lighter gauges are nice.
    • been playing with these stings for years, I like the gauge, has a great sound
    • Nice, bright sounding light gauge strings with an unwrapped G for easy bending
    • For the sake of experimentation, I replaced only the G string with an alternate string I had lying around and have no tuning issues whatsoever anymore
    • Usually the G-string on my acoustic snaps within a couple of weeks, but so far so good with these strings.
    • The high g string broke as I was tuning/changing my
    • As others have mentioned, the G is unwound which you may or may not like; it doesn't seem to make much difference to me
    • The high G string broke as I was tuning it to pitch
    • If you favor a unwound G, you can pickup a set of Ernie Ball 2008 Earthwood 80/20 Bronze Rock & Blues Acoustic String Set, (10 - 52), which have a bigger E string as well
    • but as of now, not too happy with the sound that is coming from the strings.
    • A few of them broke as I was tightening them
    • I've used Ernie Ball strings for years on my 12 guitar as well as on my 6 string.
    • The high g string broke as I was tuning/changing my
    • The high G string broke as I was tuning it to pitch
    • The .12 E string broke as I was stringing my guitar

    • What do you know, two weeks later, the high e string breaks, and leaves me with a lovely welt across my fingers
    • The E was slightly better

    • Defective high E strings
    • The .12 E string broke as I was stringing my guitar
    • I find the 10-gauge for top-E and 14-gauge for the B to be near-ideal for playability, and with the four bronze strings they deliver a rich, fulsome chord sound
    • I bought the 3 pack, unfortunately 2 out of the 3 had defective high E strings
