## Questions & Answers

**Q: What does 3D mean?**
A: 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

**Q: 6 stings included in 1 package or just 1 string?**
A: 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!

**Q: Would this work on a les paul special p90?**
A: 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

**Q: I bought balanced tension 9-40. I received regular 9-42s.**
A: Some sellers don't exactly know what balanced tension strings are so they probably though you just wanted 9's
