    I have often wondered this. I buy the 4 pack and add a .130, but it would be nice if you could walk into a GC or other store and purchase a 5 string pack.

    Yea and please tell me why the SS Slinky strings do not come in the element shield packaging???

    Maybe because they are SS and they don't rust?

    But I like the new packaging better!

    HEY CElton,
    Sorry to change the subject but I saw you have a Mesa M6 Carbine Combo.

    Well, I just bought one! How do you like yours?
