Maybe all 9 gauge strings sound that way, Other reviewers seem very positive so it can't hurt to try a pack, but I think my SGJ sounds better with Ernie Ball 10s
I've always liked the way boomers sound, very bright, decent life.
You are reading snippets from reviews of GHS Strings GBM Guitar Boomers, Nickel-Plated Electric Guitar Strings, Medium (.011-.050)
For whatever I played on the dirty channel, whether it was very light gain to play CCR, or the gain turned to 11 for BLS, the tone was unbelievable and a super great variety
I am satisfied and it gives off a great tone, the E's are satisfactory and overall I rate them 4 stars
The unwound stings (e, b, g) each have 3 or 4 tiny black deposits that feel like raised, scratchy bumps or grains of sand on the strings.
The tone is lovely, the feel is great, just all around good strings
Good tone and long lasting and a steal compared to other brands.
You can have a great sounding guitar string, but if it tarnishes and rusts out inside of a week (much like D'addario's do), then they're really just a waste of money.
When I die my guitar will be sporting Boomers
My guitar is sad when I use anything different.
GHS Boomers are "best in class" for solid-body electric guitar, hands down
These are for low end heavy tones, not for a lead guitar player that needs to bend a lot.
The simple truth is that sooner or later, I have always come back to GHS Boomers for my electrics (I like Earthwoods on my acoustics and Rotosounds on my basses).To me, there are 3 major factors to consider when choosing/purchasing guitar strings; tone, feel and longevity.
I have always found the Boomers to be made well and they have a lively, punchy tone
and I've found Boomers to have the best over-all combination of those three factors - tone, feel and longevity.
The unwound stings (e, b, g) each have 3 or 4 tiny black deposits that feel like raised, scratchy bumps or grains of sand on the strings.
I bought a set of Ernie Ball strings once and a couple of the strings rusted and broke after about 2 weeks of use
Just like everything else in life we all have different opinions about things but,the GHS BOOMERS are an all around excellent set of guitar strings and very afforable
Wonderful strings, started using Ernie Ball strings when I first started playing guitar, then went to D'Addario which is a great set, but then I was introduced to these monsters
This thick'n'thin set is perfect for drop d tuning with my Gibson SG
Also, I suspect 9.5 sets might be hard to find in your local music stores
