Ernie Ball 2223 Reviews

Great all-rounder

A reliable set of strings that have optimal amount of flexibility, thickness, grip on the fingers and clarity. The output volume and brightness of the tone on this set might be slightly higher than the average set of strings.

They last quite a long time and maintain the clarity relatively well along the way. You can't go wrong with these.

There is a reason why Legends use them

I have been playing guitar for over 10 years, and i original started off with a different brand , then one day my local music shop didint have the brand , So I started looking for an alternative , the first thing that stood out was the bright pink packaging , i thought " This is funky " looked at the back and saw all the peoples names who used them , I thought "Damn! " might aswell give em a try . Ive never used another brand to this day . The sound quality is consistent and bright on all my guitars ,and i find they last for a substantial amount of time . P.s The most important thing , i have never broken a string using them .

Great blues choice for Pacific 112J

I chose these to replace the stock strings on my 112J and very pleased with the result. Great for whole step blues bends and sound perhaps less 'tinny' than the stock items but of course tone is very much a personal choice.

Very good price quality relation. Used to buy other brands that last longer but cost 3 times more. This are my new strings.

Ernie Ball 9-42

My regular set of strings. Always in good shape, always sound bright and what is most important - those strings have a long lifespan and are capable of withstanding day-to-day abuse. Through my 10 years of guitar playing, I had no situations when Ernie Ball strings broke.

Would recommend it to anyone who needs reliable strings of good quality for reasonable price.

Simply the best

I never use any strings other than these. Been a super keen super slinky fan for ages. They sound fresh for a long time - treat them with lemon oil and they keep their shine.

Ernie Ball

if you dont know these strings by now i will tell you about them

this is simply my opinion from my experience.

other strings effect tone , i have tried quite a few . these do too but its more of an electric sound with no over tones . i could describe it as a dry tone and it is what i like as the natural tones from the guitar come through without added interference from other brand strings .

High quality guitar strings.

I have been using Slinkys for about 5 or 6 years now and they are my favourite strings ever. Good durability, great tone, reasonable price...nothing bad to say about Slinkys.

I have tried many different sizes and flavours of Ernie Ball strings, and I have settled down with Regular Slinkys(10 gauge) for my ES335 and Super Slinky(9 gauge) for Strat and similar guitars.

These are definitely some quality strings, so I will rate them 5 out of 5 :D

Great strings

If they are good for Angus Young they are good for me!

Amazing strings

Nice strings my go to 9's. Never have I Broken one. They last a good amount of time, very good on my strat.

Great for smooth sound

My favorite strings - it's quite bright, excellent for smooth and light music. They are quite strong, and it's hard to brake them.

just love them

I use these strings for my lp style guitar, and I really love them.

In terms of durability and sound quality you can't beat them!

And all this in an affordable price.

Why use anything else?

Industry standard strings for a reason, cant beat 'em so why not join??

The best of the best.

When I started studying guitar in my teenage years, I always used D'Addario because they are what came on my first guitar. A couple years later a friend of mine told me to try some Ernie Balls. I did and I have never looked back. These really are the gold standard of guitar strings.

All time favorite choice..

There isn't much to say about Ernie Balls..

For the extremely affordable price, you get good quality strings and a great, consistent sound.

Great for gigging musicians, since they are affordable and therefore they work well, in sense of flexibillity.

I find them especially great for purposes of string change for weekly gigs and home or studio sessions.

Highly recommended!

Simple, strong, durable, affordable

Good strings for the price; stay in tune well and aren't harsh on the fingers. Would use again.

Great strings

Very good product, nice easy action.

Great strings

My favourite strings. Great sound and durability.

Ernie Ball are the best strings!!

I won't mention the other very popular string brands, especially not the one beginning in D'....because Ernie Ball are simply the best.

The regular 9s aka Super Slinky are fantastic - great tone, great feel and they last a long time.
