Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Where does a .013 string go?
Usually the high E on heavy sets, or the B string on lighter sets. Depends on the gauge combination you build.
02Do I get six different strings?
No. All twelve are .013 plain steel. Buy other gauges separately to complete a set.
03Will a .013 high E need a setup?
Likely. Jumping to heavier gauge increases tension, which can pull neck relief and shift intonation.
04Plain or wound?
Plain steel, no winding. That means brighter tone and a stiffer bend compared to a wound string of similar thickness.
