## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it really work?**
A: Works as well as light gauge steel strings should.

**Q: Are these nickel free?**
A: The package it self says the strings are made from high carbon steel wire. No indications to nickel at all.

**Q: Do these work decent for drop c and drop b?**
A: I play in D standard, drop C , C# standard and they stay in tune just fine. There’s a period of adjustment (stretching) like any string. But they stay in tune well. And they don’t break nearly as often. Used to break strings @ the bridge but these don’t. I would go up a gauge for drop B for sure. But these are all I use for all my guitars (they make acoustic strings too)

**Q: How many packs of stings do you get? I can get two for this amount at sweetwater!**
A: All D'Addario's are available as single sets or in 3 packs. You didn't indicate the price. Single sets are $10.99 : 3 packs are $31.76. I don't use this set. I use Pro Steel .08's which I find too bright for general use.
