A trusted classic

I have consumed so many of these strings. Or rather, my guitars have.

They last a fairly long time, bends well. As a the dirty human being I am, they pick up quite a bit of gunk over a few months, as they do not seem to be coated, but after a few months they should be replaced anyway (I play 0.5-3 hours a day).

Will buy again. And again. And again. And.

The legendary Ernie Ball

What's there to say about this awesome set that hasn't been said? Everyone knows who and what they are - and let's not kid ourselves, the packaging is one of the most recognizable on the market.

Personally, I prefer them for my Les Paul guitars, maybe just personally, but I think it makes the guitar sound "fatter" than D'Addarios, but I'm pretty sure that's only me.

Been using Ernie Balls for over a year now and haven't had a single string break - it's usually just the regular string change that makes me switch over to new ones.

For your E standard goodness on shorter scale Les Pauls, there's nothing better for me.

Excellent

I like EBs and Dads! Slink in EBs is great, DADs make better pure nickels ...

These are great strings..

Perfect ones for home

Changed my old 0.09s on an Epi SG for this 10s from Ernie Ball - it's like a new guitar) Highly recommended.

Know quantity - great strings

If you don't have some specific need concerning strings the EB string are fine for most music genres. If I had to mention a downside this would be that their life is on the short side but that's it

Quaity Strings

I really like the feel of these strings. They sound fat for a regular gauge. I put them on my ltd ec 256.

For all tastes

This strings sound very good in my Gibson Les Paul, the sound is quite balanced, with some brands it can get muddy, so this ones allow me to have more versatility.

Pros: Sound good, clean, good sustain and although is silly, nice packaging, much better to carry for replacements in this format than the ones in cardbox. Plus with this color you never lose them in your bag.

Cons: To my taste they lose the bright end of the sound faster than other known brands, but still last much longer than others.

All in all, good price, good quality, suitable for different styles and for musicians of all levels.
