## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I use these on a ovation guitar and and do they have the metal circles to hold it to the bridge? Sorry I’m quite new to guitars**
A: Yes, these strings will work well with an Ovation Acoustic guitar. Yes, these strings have the ball ends that you describe.

**Q: Does this come with 6 pins too ?**
A: This set of strings does not include pins.

**Q: Does this have all 6 strings? And does it come with a string winder etc..**
A: This is all 6 strings. That is all it is. There is no winder included.

**Q: hi would these be okay for a beginner with little to no experience?**
A: They’re quite a light gauge, which means you don’t have to exert that much finger pressure in order to form a chord or fret a string. And for that reason I’d say yes, they’re ideal for a beginner. Though with being a lighter gauge, the strings may feel a bit more slippy when playing, but it’s something you get used to and is a bonus as you can bend notes more easily. They’re steel strings, so the obvious initial hardship will be suffering from them until your finger tips harden, that’s always a stumbling block for players transferring from classical nylon strings to steel, but it does get easier and less painful the more you play, I promise.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Greta strings for a Martin Backpacker.
*by S***S on 1 January 2026*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fabulous

These are the best guitar strings on the market. C.F Martin and co know exactly what they are doing when it comes to making guitars and guitar strings are no exception. Highly recommend these strings, they last longer (before sounding dull) and they sound fabulous

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great price, plus long lasting rich tone.
*by B***R on 22 October 2025*

The first set of these strings were a gift from a friend a couple of years ago. Prior to that I used “Elixer” strings . I welcomed the slightly heavier bottom , also they lasted ages . They produce a great tone and are terrific value for the money. I prefer the “Bronze” over the “Phosphor Bronze” , but that’s just my preference.
