User questions & answers

Question:	How many strings are in a pack? I am ordering for a friend of mine for his birthday...He has a 12 string and a 6 string guitar
Answer:	This is a standard set of 6. Search for "12 string guitar stings" without the quote marks. I'd recommend D'Addario they're good sounding strings.
Question:	Are they ball end
Answer:	I'm not quite sure what you mean by "ball end". The ends the fit into the bridge and secured by bridge pins sort of look spherical. They are really just tiny metal cylinders with a groove in the center to secure the guitar string to to the cylinder. I'm probably not much of any help, but I like Markley strings. They're pretty tough.

Product description

Crafted of 92% Copper and 8% Zinc, Blue Steel acoustic strings are cryogenically frozen with a blast of liquid nitrogen which gives them these special, if not magical qualities. By freezing their strings down to -320ºF, they tighten the molecules, minimizing microscopic gaps. This process removes transient frequencies that produce harsh highs and muddy lows, creating a more consistent string, with true tone and longer life.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work well for a nylon string guitar
Answer:	No it wont work for a nylon guitar only for acuatic not for classical guitar woth nylon strings✌

Answer:	It fits the standard acoustic guitar sound hole - I can measure it on mondayYou can make it smaller if the hole is smaller than average by following this instructionshttp://www.deanmarkley.com/Info/InstallationInstructions/ProMag_Installation.pdf
Question:	Do I need a preamp to use this with a Fender acoustasonic 15 combo amplifier
Answer:	TO be honest, I am not sure. However, I found that with this particular pick-up, I needed a pre-amp of some kind. I use a Zoom A2 pedal as a pre-amp. My Amp is a Kustom Sienna 65. The guitar is a 1971 Harmony Sovereign dreadnaught. Going without the pedal straight into the amp felt weak.
Question:	Will this fit a 3.5" hole
Answer:	yes, i have one in a samick acoustic with the 3.5 inch hole, i also had it in a framus with a 4 inch hole, but am using it in the samick.

User questions & answers

Question:	We are try to amplify a baby grand. Not for audience, but for band monitors. Any thoughts
Answer:	I was not impressed with its performance on either a ukulele or a mandolin, I imagine it would not work very well on a large instrument like a piano.
Question:	will this fit any standard amp
Answer:	Yes, but it sounds better through a pre-amp
Question:	Does it affect you using a strap with your guitar
Answer:	The way that this pickup configuration is supplied has nothing to do with using, or not using, a strap. The pickup plugs into the amplifier, or preamp if you're using one. The particular way that I installed it (permanently on the inside) requires that the wire be cut and soldered to a 1/4" female input jack. The jack that I used was developed by Larry Fishman, and it's called a Strap Jack for an obvious reason: You can attach your guitar strap to it, although you may have to enlarge the hole on the strap end to accommodate some straps. I sit when I perform so it makes no difference to me. The Dean Markley pickup reviewed here is also available in a permanent installation kit. I did not realize that it was still available when I bought mine, but if you're considering putting this pickup in permanently, it would make sense to, uh....pick up that pickup configuration from the start:-) If you want 'easy', just get the one with the putty as shown here, especially if you're not handy.
Question:	Does this pu have enough output for use with a harmonizer pedal such as the tch vl play acoustic to trigger harmonies or would a preamp be needed
Answer:	I just use it for a cello, so I don't know.
