Ernie Ball 2221 5-stars Reviews

Always delivers!

After using Boomers for years I tried a set of these, and got hooked right away. I feel like they intonate better and feel smoother than most other strings, and all this for a very reasonable price.

Ernie ball

Ernie Ball strings are used with many great musicians, so I gave 'em a shot after trying more brands. Regular Slinky are ideal, it feels great under my fingers. And remember if EB is good enough for Eric Clapton, it is most probably good enough for you.

The benchmark Ernie Ball's

When you buy Ernie Ball's, you can expect to get good durability, a great tone and a great feel. These are the Regular's, which are equal to most other manufacturer's mediums or light mediums. If you don't know which strings to get, I suggest you get these ones first. They work nicely for just about anything in E-standard, Eb-standard or Drop-D tunings. Lower than that, and I'd opt for thicker strings.

Sounds ok

Classicaly that is great desision. Last time I heard from some musicians, that Daddario strings are cheaper AND better. The reason for that is that Daddario strings gives good sound longer time.

For me it is ok. Also I have not enought experience to say, the strings hav ore have not good sound. Because of that I geve 5 stars.

Beefy slinkys

I use these for the blues slide resonator - they do the job really well!

Very good strings

Ernie Ball makes some of the best guitar strings in the market today. Many guitar shops will recommend you this strings. I am very satisfied by their quality and tone.

EB Strings

These are classy, quality e-guitar strings with good sound and fine feel under your fingers. They are very affordable and durability is fairly long, but that also depends on how often you play. For me, thumbs up !

Never let you down

In my opinion, the best strings! I use these to five of my guitars. Smooth and nice sound and they almost never broken. Also fits perfectly to the Variax guitars.

My favourite strings

I still remember the moment when I tried Ernie Ball strings after experimenting with lots of different brands - it was exactly the sound I wanted! They have a really bright sound and pinch harmonics in particular sound great. I play metal, and for palm-muting with a sharp, distinct attack these are perfect. They bend very easily too. The downside is that they don't last very long compared to other brands I tried.

Ernie Ball 2221

Great strings. Have tried quite a few of the top brands but Ernie Ball 2221's are by far my favourite. Great sound, last longer than most strings I've tried, and most importantly they bend slightly easier and make playing just that bit more fun than all of the other strings I've tried.

Great strings

Good quality strings from a good manufacturer in a pack. Not much else to say :)

Great strings

EB manufacturing quality can't be beat.

If you play 10's these are superior strings.

Great tone, great value

These strings give a clear tone with a warm bassy tone which I love. Not as bright as d'addarios which I would prefer on a strat but these strings sound great on my Semi-Hollow body guitar. Why spend any more for strings which won't sound too much better?

The Industry Standard?

I've been using Ernie Ball strings for at least ten years & haven't found any reason to change brand - they sound great, are long lasting & great value.

I love 2221s!!

I just love these strings on my main electric, always a great tone, very rare to get a broken skin and they last quite long too.

Great Strings.

I have only ever used Ernie Ball strings, so I can't compare to there brands of strings, however I use these strings for E Standard and Drop D and they're sound great to me.

Great strings

These nickel Regular Slinky guitar strings are my every-day strings of choice. They are the most affordable, decent-sounding strings I have found. They are well made and have been designed for detuning as well as regular tuning.

Good strings

I always use these strings on my Gibson Les Paul and they ALWAYS sound fantastic! Remember strings are a personal preference, so its difficult to make a full review. But if your preference are 10s I would certainly recomend these to any guitarist (beginer or advanced). They last a reasonably long time too!
