Small-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-on Easy-to-play, non-whistling E
Pros: I've tried all three weights of the Hill Special E. The heavy gauge is a bit hard to play; the light one sounds slightly weedy, but the medium one strikes just the right balance. Plus, it's never whistled on me, which is the whole reason I've been experimenting with specialist Es.
Cons: I can't fault it!

Small-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-on I would recommend this purchase
Pros: I bought this string because I was having trouble with a lot squeaking and squealing on the original E string. I did find that with the Hill special this problem was very much reduced so for that reason alone I was very happy with my purchase. Also I found the Hills string matches the rest of the set ok.
Cons: No cons found
Other: The delivery was prompt
