There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I asked my guitar instructor for some recommendations and he told me to get these strings. He also told me about these earplugs which help filter out background noise so I can focus - they actually do seem to help. Anyways I tried to get these strings locally but they didn’t have it at the store that I usually go to so I bought it online from amazon. I don’t have prime membership so it took a few days to get here but I was okay with that since I managed to get it while it was on sale. One pack comes with three sets and I got it for under $15 so I feel like I got a pretty good deal.
I’ve never bought any type of guitar string before aside from the ones that came with my instrument so I can’t compare them that well with others but from what I can tell the quality is great. I also noticed on the packaging that it’s made in the USA so that’s always a good sign. It took me a little while to switch the strings but that’s just me being an amateur and has nothing to do with the actual product.
Once I put them on, they had a nice balanced sound. There’s a noticeable difference on how they feel compared to the old ones I had. It makes such a big difference when I’m practicing…my fingers don’t hurt nearly as bad. People say that they also produce a better tone and I believe it.
The only thing I didn’t like about it was the packaging. The neon yellow color is nice but each set comes in a plastic bag that you have to tear apart. It’s not a zip lock design or anything so you’re kind of forced to use all of the strings at once once you’ve opened them. This wasn’t a problem for me since I was replacing all of mine anyway but I can see how it can be annoying for someone who only wants to replace one. You’d need to find a secure place to put it or something.
Overall however I am still happy with my purchase. I was worried that guitar strings would be expensive but fortunately that wasn’t the case and they’re actually pretty affordable. I don’t know how long these ones will last me but if everything is good I wouldn’t hesitate to buy another pack when I have to. Would I recommend them? Yes…but I’m not sure I’m in a position to actually recommend anything yet. There are probably a lot more people out there who know more about these products than me. From my experience so far however, they work great.
Versatile Gauge: The mix of lighter and heavier strings is great. It makes playing solos and bending strings easier while still giving a strong sound for chords and rhythm.
Good Tone: These strings have a bright and balanced tone that fits different music styles. They make my guitar sound clear and full.
Durable: They last a decent amount of time. Even after a lot of playing, they hold up without breaking.
Comfortable: The nickel wound strings feel smooth and are easy on the fingers, making long playing sessions more comfortable.
If there's one thing that goes with the territory it's the break-in Period. There’s a short time when the strings are new that they go out of tune a bit until they settle in.
Overall, the Ernie Ball Hybrid Slinky Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings are a solid choice. They’re versatile, comfortable, and sound great. There are a couple of minor downsides, but they don’t take away from the overall quality and performance. I recommend them for anyone looking for a reliable set of guitar strings.

Tem uma durabilidade razoável que pode variar de músico pra músico.
Com essa corda eu consigo o timbre que geralmente desejo de minha guitarra e são bem confortáveis, conseguindo fazer bends sem medo da desafinação tocando por bastante tempo.
Sobre este anúncio em específico, tem um preço competitivo comparado ao que temos encontrado em outros lugares, inclusive lojas físicas.
Por melhor que essas cordas sejam, já me deparei com jogos que vieram com parte da corda enferrujada, mesmo com essa embalagem "anti rust".
Recomendo a compra aqui deste anúncio.
