Yep, and we would buy two sets so we couuld substitute first string for the second string and a second string for the third string so they would bend easier.

Black Diamond Strings

Post by Leigh Howell »

Yes, I remember those strings I used to get them at Clarks Drug store. I was just learning how to play, and sing with the guitar. This was in 1948 or 49. I got really excited when I had a chance to have a whole set of new strings!! : )
