Reviews around guitar (4.26 of 5)

  • Been playing Ernie Ball strings for many years and they have been great electric guitar strings
  • I have already tried D'Addario NYXL0838 Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings, Extra Super Light, 8-38
  • They help my cheap guitars sound a little better, but my main reason for liking these is because they’re smoother and less noisy when moving up and down the frets, IMO.
  • Normally love these strings, unfortunately each package had a weak string that broke as soon as it was mounted and tuned
  • If you like to play harder rhythm guitar, favor a bassier sound, and/or are used to playing on an acoustic guitar, I highly recommend them

Reviews around play (4.14 of 5)

  • cause the are so slinky and the tremlo string's do slide if their not put in right, Had to get more High E string's cause It broke as I was tuning
  • Normally love these strings, unfortunately each package had a weak string that broke as soon as it was mounted and tuned
  • These strings play very well and are light which feels good to play for me
  • The hybrid slinkys (09-46) are excellent fast playing string with a great tone
  • " Great guitars play and sound great, period, given of course that you are using at least decent strings.

Reviews around tone (3.89 of 5)

  • These are good strings, they have a good tone and I like them
  • has the classic tone of ernie ball strings, really nice everybody
  • Perfect for dropped B tuning, and works just fine in standard tuning (although at a half-step higher you risk breaking the high E with some frequency).
  • They have a great tone and i am happy with all the different types of strings made by them!!
  • If you are planning to go with thicker strings for better tone then these should do you as well as any other

  • Normally love these strings, unfortunately each package had a weak string that broke as soon as it was mounted and tuned
  • I bought a set over the summer to put on after breaking yet another E string bending too hard
  • No doubt the best guitar strings you can buy and a great value as well !!
  • Perfect for dropped B tuning, and works just fine in standard tuning (although at a half-step higher you risk breaking the high E with some frequency).

Reviews around deal (3.32 of 5)

  • Normally love these strings, unfortunately each package had a weak string that broke as soon as it was mounted and tuned
  • Furthermore, they are affordable, so if you break your High E, it is worth putting another set on, as opposed to the one string
  • Perfect for dropped B tuning, and works just fine in standard tuning (although at a half-step higher you risk breaking the high E with some frequency).
  • A good tip is to use a light, bendy plectrum, which is pretty much essential for the top E (gauge 9).One caution: these strings are very stretchy and take a few hours to ‘bed in’ during which they go out of tune easily, especially the top two, so best not to fit them immediately prior to a performance
  • A three pack was a great deal from Amazon which means I have a backup pack for the same price of my local store (though I'm guilty for not buying from the local store).

Reviews around e (1.69 of 5)

  • Perfect for dropped B tuning, and works just fine in standard tuning (although at a half-step higher you risk breaking the high E with some frequency).
  • The G (gauge 16) is single-strand nickel-plated steel, like the B and top E, so light and bendable
  • Sound is not good and last e string just broken after tune
  • Furthermore, they are affordable, so if you break your High E, it is worth putting another set on, as opposed to the one string
  • The G (gauge 16) is single-strand nickel-plated steel, like the B and top E, so light and bendable

Reviews around string break (1.52 of 5)

  • I recommend using these only on your electric guitars as in my opinion, the strings are just too light to give off the sound you'd want when placed on an acoustic
  • Normally love these strings, unfortunately each package had a weak string that broke as soon as it was mounted and tuned
  • The G (gauge 16) is single-strand nickel-plated steel, like the B and top E, so light and bendable
  • A good tip is to use a light, bendy plectrum, which is pretty much essential for the top E (gauge 9).One caution: these strings are very stretchy and take a few hours to ‘bed in’ during which they go out of tune easily, especially the top two, so best not to fit them immediately prior to a performance
  • Bought a 3 pack & all 3 #1 strings broke while tuning on two different guitars and a #2 string broke also on the Les Paul, JUNK strings
