## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why do reviews state there are only one string in this, when it clearly staes 6 pack?**
A: You can see in the left corner it says 6 plain strings. Thats what this is. I get these alot. This is a set of .009 gauge strings. Six .009s are in this pack. This is for people like me that either use string setups that are different than normal or if you break alot of .009s. There are six strings in the pack. All .009s. No other gauge strings in the pack just .009s. Hope this helps.

**Q: Are they sealed in plastic?**
A: They are wrapped in paper and sealed in a plastic pouch.

**Q: Are each string in their own individual paper envelope or are looped together like D'Addario does with their multi strings of the same guage?**
A: Each string is inside a single envelope

**Q: how long are the strings? I get that they are all .009 in thickness but what is the length of them? I wish manufacturer specified in the details.**
A: The  strings are plenty long for standard or long fret guitar - no worries about length.  Very flexible, easy to bend.
