## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it low in sugar?**
A: Yes, sugar-free in fact. You could always sprinkle some on though if that's your preference.

**Q: Will these work on a Gibson Les Paul Special II?**
A: Short answer, yes. They will work on most guitars, provided they are the proper scale length. The high e is prone to snapping without much effort. Mine snapped after 2 weeks of regular use whilst loosening them up for guitar maintenance. Still good value though.

**Q: Do they play ok in C# standard?**
A: Yes they play fine in most tunings above standard A

**Q: I restrung my guitar with these strings (they are the right gauge for the guitar) but now all the frets are a semitone out of tune. Any way to fix?**
A: Make sure your intonation is set correctly.  To check intonation, fret string at twelfth fret then do open harmonic at same fret. They should sound the same.if sharp or flat then adjust bridge saddle.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Can't go wrong

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product.

Good product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best strings I have used for standard tuning
*by A***S on 14 June 2014*

I am a working musician and I use several electric guitars in different tunings. Owing to a busy work schedule my guitars take a lot of punishment. I get through a lot of strings. When using guitars in regular EADGBE tuning, I found that strings would break frequently and sustain was limited when using lighter gauge sets. Consequently I have tried almost every recognised brand of strings to resolve these issues and Ernie Ball Hybrids have proved to be the best in terms of lifespan and sound quality. The customized 9-46 gauges are perfect. The thicker strings have sustain and durability, whilst the lighter gauge strings allow for plenty of noodling and dexterity in lead playing - The unwound strings are light enough to ensure you don't get blisters. This happy combination means your guitar will be reliable whether you are playing violent punk or subtle jazz standards. The strings remain nice and bright for a good few weeks of average use. When experimenting with other makes I was surprised to learn that higher priced strings often had shorter lifespans. Do not be fooled by celebrity endorsements or bold claims of scientific innovation. In standard tuning, these affordable Ernie Ball Hybrids function at a higher level to everything else I have tried.
