2223 : Ernie Balls. my 'go to' strings for electric guitar

I don't change strings as often as I probably should.. but that's because of a mixture of laziness and because although a new set of strings sound fantastic, so does an old set.

I've been using Ernie Ball slinkys for the last ~5 years and have never had any issues. They're long lasting and very durable and haven't had any scary string snapping moments mid-bend.

They do require a little 'stretching' and retuning for the first few hours after fitting but once bedded in they maintain excellent tuning stability and I've found that any issues are typically guitar related.

This set is the 9-42 gauge. I typically use the 'hybrid' set (9-46) as I prefer the beefier bottom strings for heavy riffing and the lighter top strings for easy bends.

Treat your guitar to a new set of strings... it deserves it!
