Big, but not real useful
Unless you write music with a felt-tipped marker, I'd look for something else. The staves in this volume are large and extremely dark. The typical (pencilled) scribbles of composers will be difficult to read on this paper.

decent manuscript paper at a great price
Each page has twelve 11mm staves with 10mm between each. This can get cramped quickly depending on the music, so if you're looking for a high-quality paper for a nice-looking manuscript, look elsewhere. If not, this is hard to beat for the price. I use only one side of the paper, so this works out to about $.043 per page.

The paper itself is fairly sturdy, and the perforations let them tear out without too much trouble. The one-page 'notation guide' is useless unless you don't know the difference between a quarter note and a rock.

As for ease of readability, the staves are fairly bold and might cause problems for pencil users. Personally, I find that pen doesn't smear and is easier to read than pencil, and erasures take much more time than scribbling over a passage anyway. That said, this paper I've found perfect for manuscripts ranging from solo instruments through piano and chamber pieces and even large ensemble sketches.

Great!
I love this book! Good price for how much staff paper you get. I have been able to write all kinds of drum solos down with this awesome book. I suggest that if you need to write music but don't have the money for some REALLY expensive and nice staff paper, get this book.
