    GHS Strings GBM Guitar Boomers, Nickel-Plated Electric Guitar Strings, Medium (.011-.050)

    • Bright sound for the price.
    • They are durable and the sound stays consistently good for a long time.
    • Bright sound didn't last as long as
    • Rich sound and last a long time.
    • My meager bends are no more difficult than with the 9's but the guitar sounds better
    • Great sound and a pleasure to play
    • The fact that their affordable, in my book at least, is just icing on the cake!To give you a quick comparison, I would compare the tone and feel of these strings to the ever infamous Ernie Ball Slinky's (which I use as my backups when I can't get ahold of Boomers)...to my ears the sound is a bit brighter, but not by much and the feel is VERY comparable.
    • When you get them boil them is snake blood or pickle them for 5 years or whatever you do that you think improves the sound then shut up and PLAY PLAY and PLAY some more.
    • They have a really nice mellow, yet bright sound.
    • They last a long time, hold tuning well once broken-in and sound great for hard rock distorted tones as well as clean sounds.
    • These strings really have a great sound, and they lasted me a long time.
    • The sound is great and the price really low :)
    • Nice full rock, & R&B sound with the capability to touch on some jazz when needed.
    • Nice overall sound, stronger bass strings response.
    • sweet sound and good price
    • Great strings sound amazing and the thickness will make them last longer too
    • He likes the light weight strings and they always produce great sound!!
    • Have heard they are quite vibrant and give a nice clean and sharp sound
    • The sound is bright and clean and the life is crazy
    • These don't stay bright sounding very long.
    • GHS Boomers are great strings and produce fantastic sound..
    • These are great sounding for rock.
    • 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.
    • Like all my other Boomers, this sound great and hold up well, might be my new go to string.
    • They have this twanging, rough sound which I do not like, so I trashed them and went back to D'Addario
    • they have a great sound they stay in tune well and last a long time!
