Overall good strings

Don't have any problems with them. Also, I'm not a pro guitar player so that's that.

Perfect if 10s are too much

Love using these Hybrid Slinky, especially in standard E tuning!

Good for the price.

I feel there are way better options if you go up money-wise.

However, these are pretty solid and sound well. Need a new pack once a month though.

Just my two cents here.

Everything had been said already here, so there is only one thing that I feel like pointing out: hybrid sets could be a lifesaver. Ernie Ball or otherwise.

Let?s be honest here: As rule of thumb, you select your strings based on two general parameters: how they feel (your hand?s size, your fingers strength, your playing style and the like) and that their sound and durability are reasonably ok (let?s be honest again, not everybody could hear the slight difference in sound from brand to brand in sets of same gauge and materials). Ernie Ball fits the bill, no question.

BUT there is something else to consider. Hybrid strings could literally save certain certain guitars. Pay close attention to your guitar. If it sounds skinny, weak or loose in the bass response, hybrids could fix that at little cost and without a huge compromise in terms of action and playability.

For many of you, the afore mentioned is probably redundant and evident, but for novices might find this useful, so it did worth my while to mention this still.

Good hybrid set

I used these on a strat copy in E or Eb. Out of the first set the E and the G strings broke, but they sounded and felt good for quite a while.

all time favorite

I love these strings, they are so comfortabel to play and have a great and clear sound. I alaways have to buy more sets because they don't live long with me, maybe i strumm them too hard... but the price is not that hight so it's not a big thing.

I use these strings on a Strat and a Tele, both sound good with them but you should clean them after you played, if you have sweaty hands they will rust quite fast.

fine

I've been playing guitar for 25 years. I've always liked Ernie Balls. With many hours of playing on them they still feel and sound good.

Ernie Ball 2222 Hybrid Strings

I have always used Ernie Ball strings as they are my preferred brand, I'm used to how they feel and I have always been satisfied with the sound and the quality as well as the price. These strings are as good as any of the other Ernie Ball strings I have used in the past. I used them primarily for learning a few heavier songs in drop-D tuning and they performed very well. The sound is very good as is the reliability, I got about 2 months regular everyday use out of them. The only thing that I would say is a slight disadvantage to using these strings, is that if you are using something like a Floyd Rose, the fact these strings are a combination of two gauges may need you to adjust your intonation if you have it precisely setup for regular 9's already.
