    yeah thanks but no thanks. tried the acoustic dunlop strings. B and (high) E broke on first installment. Didn’t even get to play ‘em. Replaced them with my old “ernie ball super slinky” which still sound great after a whole year of playing. The surviving strings sounded dull. First and last Dunlop strings purchase. meh.
