.042 .042

The folk guitar string you bought individually that pulls .42 is probably the high E string (E) or the low D string (D) depending on how the string is labeled.

Guitar strings are graded according to their diameter, measured in millimeters or inches. The thinnest, highest-pitched string is the E string (E) and the thickest, lowest-pitched string is the low E string (E) for a standard guitar.

Folk guitar strings are often made of phosphor bronze or 80/20 bronze, but there are other alloys as well. So the .42 string could vary slightly in sound and feel depending on the brand and type of alloy used.
