These Mighty Slinky 8.5-40 strings are great!
Decided to try these on a squire bullet tele, I'd usually go with 9s or even 10s but wanted to try something different. Love the balanced tone I get now. Maybe not for everyone, best with a lighter touch and thinner pick, but these seem to ring. My tele sounds even better than ever, compared with the slinky 10s I had on it.... plays so easy and doing those country bends is amazing. If you have a bullet tele, give them a try!

These are the best strings out there...for one they are affordable, two they don't have all this coatings bs that charges more and messes with the tone... I have been using for over 20 years (most on floyds 10's) yes they break like every other string out, but when they do break on a floyd they always break on the high E just in front of the saddle...these are a no bs, sound great for a long time, stay in tune(after break in time) for along time, who wants to pay 10.99 or more for a set...nickel wound strings are designed years ago for the electric guitar its that simple! I'll always buy these for years to come!

Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2024
Color: Mighty (8.5-40)Style: Single PackPattern Name: StringsVerified Purchase
Been playing for 30 years and finally decided to settle on a standard string for each of my electrics. Cycled through several brand such as GHS Boomers, GHS Gilmour, D'Addario XL & NYXL, DR's and a few others. Kept coming back to Slinky's. They play smooth, last forever, quick break in and, maybe its my imagination, but the tone suits my playing. Bends seem smoother and my calouses dont get chewed up during a 4 hour jam sesh. I'm a finger player so some strings, esp lighter gauges, just twang too much or have too much grab. Depending on the guitar, I am using Slinky 8.5, 9 and 10's, and I find I am able to use lower gauges without tone loss, sustain issues or sacrificing feel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great, cheap strings for beginners (and maybe pros too?)
Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2020
Color: Regular (10-46)Style: 3-PackPattern Name: StringsVerified Purchase
I started playing the guitar 3 months ago. I bought one that’s suitable for beginners at my local music shop and have been using that ever since. I try to practice whenever I can, usually in the evenings after the kids have had dinner. It can be distracting if they’re being hyper (my 4 & 6 year olds never seem to run out of energy), but it’s the only time I can really play. My fingers would hurt but I thought it was just a matter of having to get used to it. Well that problem never went away so I did some research and found out that it might be due to my strings.

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great set for drop C tuning
Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2024
Color: Burly (11-52)Style: 3-PackPattern Name: StringsVerified Purchase
I use these strings for a drop C tuning on a Les Paul (24.75 scale) and they sound great. Before this guitar was in standard E. I was afraid I would have to mess around with the nut, but actually everything went real easy. The only thing I needed to do was making sure the intonation was correct, and it only took 15 minutes. I gave 4 starts on brightness because this is a lower tuning so, naturally, it's a less bright tone, and also on a Les Paul with vintage pickups the tone is dark (naturally), but there is nothing wrong at all. I have historically used a different brand of strings and this was just a try for me, but I'm really liking these Ernie Balls strings now so I may stick with them for a while. Great set of strings!

4.0 out of 5 stars solid strings
Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2024
Color: Hybrid (9-46)Style: 3-PackPattern Name: StringsVerified Purchase
I've been using E Ball strings for decades and here's my opinion -
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.

Earnie balls are classics. I've never had any issues with them. Sounds crisp and new as long as the other guys.

I tried these over my go to "Not even slinky". Sounds great but don't stretch the G string to hard. I haven't popped a string in years but the 22w string clearly wanted to change that...

Uso cordas Ernie Ball desde 2005, na época nem tinha esse tipo de embalagem antiferrugem. Corda com bom timbre, se a guitarra for boa e estiver bem regulada, a afinação já estabiliza rápido.
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.
