Ernie Ball Skinny Top Heavy Bottom Slinky Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings - 10-52 Gauge

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 Paul9s on some strats. And even 8s and 7sGot 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!!!!

I have Ernie Ball 10-54s on my Epi 60s Standard Les Paul. I generally prefer light to medium strings (I have a Strat with 9-42s and a Casino with 11-49s), but the thicker gauge in the low end give the Les Paul a huge, warm, dark tone when played clean, while the lighter strings in the top end allow for bends. Once you get the hang of the transition between the D and the G, it feels very natural.If I only played fast rock stuff on this guitar I might use lighter strings overall, but I don’t. And I also play bass, so thick strings don’t bother me.Great strings: great tone, durable and not expensive.

Used these before easy on your fingers if some professional players use them so will I.May sound a bit thinner in tone but you can compensate with your amp controls I feel more relaxed when I use these their great.

Good sounds

These are some incredible guitar strings. They’re all of a consistent and diverse array of strength for both down tunings and regular tunings. Sound really good on my six string SG model. Very clean and slick.

The media could not be loaded. 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.

These are always my go-to strings for my electric guitars. If you're changing strings on a guitar with a Floyd Rose bridge, make sure to replace them one at a time—removing all the strings at once can cause the bridge to dip and mess with the setup.

Nice quality
