Ernie Ball Slinky Nickel Strings

Ernie Ball strings have been a top choice for players of all types since the early 1960s, when guitarists came into Ernie Ball's music store, customizing their string gauges to make their axes easier to play. After fruitless attempts to interest major guitar manufacturers in a lighter set of strings, Ernie Ball decided to start making his own. When you open a pack of his strings today, you know you're getting a quality set of strings designed to give you great tone, reliable performance, and long life. You can't go wrong when you string up with Ernie Ball strings!

Ernie Ball's Skinny Top Heavy Bottom electric guitar strings are made from nickel-plated steel wire wrapped around a tin-plated hex-shaped steel core wire. They offer a great balanced sound that's neither bright nor too dark.

Amazing Strings

I love these strings! They have a strong, melodic sound that is warm and inviting. Easy to play and feels very good to play on. As a beginner, it makes it easier to play and want to continue playing.

Perfect for Drop D

I use these on an Epiphone Les Paul in Drop D. The tension is perfect and they sound amazing. Ive been using these strings for 15 years now and have tried a multitude of different brands/gauges. Nothing compares.
