these strings came very quickly, and they were very inexpensive. The seller also threw in a few picks as well; very happy with this product--haven't broken a string yet.

I love these strings because the sounds are so pure and not twangy, and they are pretty easy to use. Each string is labeled so you know which goes where. I'm a beginner and can change my own strings, so I'm proud of myself.

I ordered these awhile ago but they never came in. This could have been a one time problem that happened to me and is most likely not going to happen to you, but doesn't mean that I am not upset about it. Be sure to contact the seller if it doesn't arrive.
