Customer Review: Defective product.
First, the nylon guitar strings were packaged in the wrong individual containers (2 labeled as #6, no #2). Two of the wound strings spontaneously snapped during the first night after they were installed. And, no, they were not wound too tightly. Strongly recommend against purchasing this particular product.
