## Description

Product description Ernie Ball Skinny Top Heavy Bottom Slinky Strings are the perfect hybrid set for those who like thick bottom strings without sacrificing the ability to solo on smaller strings. These strings are precision manufactured to the highest standards and most exacting specifications to ensure consistency, optimum performance, and long life. The wound strings are made from nickel plated steel wire wrapped around a hex shaped steel core wire. The plain strings are made of specially tempered tin plated high carbon steel; producing a well balanced tone for your guitar. Legal Disclaimer No warranty

Review: Great strings, works especially well for drop tuning - Use these on my Epiphone SG. They sound fantastic, far better than the worn strings that were sat on my guitar from the store, and I instantly noticed a difference. I changed them about 3 months ago and I play every day, sometimes for several hours at a time, and so far none of the strings look worn nor do they sound dull at all. The strings work perfectly for drop tunings as the low e string retains enough tension to be in D or even as low as B, whilst the higher strings retain the bright sound you only get with smaller gauges. This said, I still sometimes tune down half a step and it sounds perfect. The strings bend great, and I have had no breakages or problems with this.
Review: Perfect - Best range there is. I once played in a band and this string, with the JCM 900 and a single cut PRS did everything I could ever ask for other than tube themselves. Great bottom, great top end cut, great middle grip, just a great string with a great ring. Used them since i got to a reasonable level and my dad stopped buying me D’ddario 9’s.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best strings on the market IMO.
*by D***S on 23 December 2019*

Changed to these after years of using EB "Super Slinky's" (9's). These are great strings, with a more "robust" Top E.
