Ernie Ball Super Slinky Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings 3 Pack - 9-42 Gauge

Fantastic strings, great quality. My go to on any type of electric guitar

Awesome strings. Always used ernie balls. From their 9s, 10s, 11s to now their paradigms. I got a fresh set on before this show in the clip, check it out, sounds decent! FYI that guitar is a budget hartwood semi acoustic hallow body whammy and it's awesome. Check it out. I get some decent use of these and I'm a heavy player too typically and they're hard to break, I can't remember the one I broke actually before restringing is due! Nice warmth, color, tone, durable, resistant, just overall great brand and great strings. And reasonably priced too.

I have had a top 'E' break after only a couple of hours playing but that is very rare and usually the fault of a sharp edge or rough fret on the guitar. Oddly I also seem to get a fair number of 'A' string breakages but I reckon that is more that particular guitar's fault too. these do sound lovely and jangly and fresh when first fitted but they lose that fairly quickly. For that reason and to minimise the chances of a breakage on stage, I have a two gig (three maximum) limit on my stage guitars for strings (not quite rich enough to have new strings every gig yet). All strings lose their vitality after a while and they are more likely to break the longer they are on the guitar particularly if you're doing a lot of 1-step/1.5-step bends. So, I like these strings and they are all I buy for my electric guitars. I think they are value for money but you do have to keep them fresh. Strings are actually a big part of your sound and there's little point in buying lovely, crisp, expensive pickups if you are going to leave the strings on forever.

Good set of strings for a great price. Compared to other strings from D'addario, Gibson, and Elixer, these strings are a much better value since they are so cheap. However, in all the years that I have been playing, I have not once said, "man this guitar is great, what kind of strings are these?" Great guitars play and sound great, period, given of course that you are using at least decent strings. I know that every guitarist has their go-to strings, as do I (and the brands and styles vary across each of my guitars), but honestly strings are strings. These days, so much attention is paid to the manufacturing of these strings, that the quality and consistency is great across a number of different brands. Generally, I can't tell much of a difference in tone, playability, or "slinky-ness" across brands. (I can hear the groans now) Hear me out though, if I want to change the tone, I will get a different string gauge, and this is the same for slinkyness. In the end, given 5 sets of top notch strings, I will pick the fresh set vs. a worn set 10 times out of 10. Pros: Very cheap for 3 sets of strings, that means you can change more often, which in turn means that these strings will feel and sound better longer I feel like they definitely last longer than say Gibson vintage strings, but most coated, modern strings will be comparable. Cons: None Conclusion: Strings are strings, and given a good set of strings, I would only base this recommendation on price and great value (5 stars for that). If you are just starting out, I recommend you try a number of different strings to find your preference, but usually in a pinch whatever my local shop has on hand has worked just fine

Great product

Great strings and good price.

If you need decent guitar strings you can't go wrong with Ernie Ball. I've been using Super Slinky for 30+ years. A tone and quality I take for granted, although it's debatable how much difference there is between manufacturers. I've tried every other brand you can name and still stick with Ernie Ball as they simply can't be beaten.

I’ve been using Ernie balls for years. Can’t get a better string and I love the sound when they are fresh. The first week using these on a strat always feels awesome! I use them on everything 10s on my les Paul 9s on some strats. And even 8s and 7s Got some 13s on an archtop epiphone. They always sound great. Crisp and clear. Can’t fault Ernie balls at all. I’ve never broken one. People say they do and I’m like whaaaaaa? I play loads of bends in my style of playing and they never break. And when they do it’s alway at the bridge or the nut which means it’s your guitar… I recommend 9s to anyone playing a strat. They are just right for all types of strat style music… funk to hard rock. If you’ve got a les Paul however I recommend 10s to keep the tension up. But if you’re feel adventurous like young billy gibbons get yourself some 7s they are super wild. Especially for gentlemen and ladies who like to bend supremely. Ernie ball pretty much invented wound guitar strings. The other brands are similar. And some people talk about output changes from difrent alloys in the string but slinky’s have always been excellent. If they don’t have enough output for yiu???? Get a new setup or try the Colbalts. Best value and best guitar string there is. With every gauge option under the sun. ROCK ONNNN YEAAAAAAHHH!!!!

One of the best guitar strings out there, and for a good price

Very comfortable using these strings definitely I will order again.

Ideale snaren voor mij. Spelen perfect en gaan lang mee.

Good product
