Ernie Ball 2627 Beefy Slinky 5-stars Reviews

Excellent strings drop tuning

Excellent string set for tuning down. Best I have tried so far.

The Best strings

Perfect gauge for drop d for my les paul

Great strings at a great price

Great strings. I use them for many years

Love it for Drop C and C standard

I love the feel and sound of this set. They're great for Drop C and C standard tunings on a regular scale. I'm using it for years now and I never disappointed.

Perfect if you like to drop

I use them for a guitar tuned in Drop-D, and I think it's the perfect choice if you like to have a good tension on the lower string. Sounds BIG!

Solid and good strings

I play rock and roll and hit the guitar pretty hard as well as bending strings almost to a limit. For some year now I have used Earnie Balls and the quality has been good, solid and constant. With some other brands I have had for example G string break during tuning up for the first time or even a D. Ernie Ball has been on the market for a long time and they sound like any other string. I just know that when I string up my guitar with Ernie Balls they will last and I feel safe.

Big sound but string wound tight, mostly the 3rd string

I prefer to use this in metal, jazz, or even fingerstyle. I usually play with my partner or alone. The sound good at strumming with clean tone. When I use acoustic VST it sounds close compare to thin string.

For metal, I adjust the bass knobs to min, because this string produces much bass and less treble than I used to.

Pros: Feels durable at the price IMHO. not sure if it is rusted quickly,

Cons: 3rd string is tighter compare the rest, it is also bigger that appear slightly lifted and the sound slightly low tone IMO.

Tips: This will be good if the action is low and the truss is loosen.

The best of the best

Simply the best strings available ! I've been using them for quite some time now and I'm not ready to change ! Gives you that big sound.

Go to set for my Explorer on D standard

I like to play some Mastodon riffs on my explorer, and this set makes the chugging exceptional.

Chunky and Deep

I bought these strings with thicker gauge to experiment with standard D tuning. Excellent sound and string definition

Great for detuning!

Great strings, they don't seem to break easily, I have only broken one in about 5 or 6 sets! Sound is good, only downside is, that they tend to rust pretty easily in my hands. I kinda have to go for a new set after 2 or 3 jams or gigs..

Heavy sound

I use guitar with half step down tuning and I wanted a heavy sound so these strings are a perfect match.

Ernie ball for heavy sound!

You can't go wrong with ernie ball.I use them on my ltd ec-401 for c-standard tuning.Great heavy sound with clarity.They hold the guitar in tune and even with my sweaty fingers they don't get rusty.Best strings out there.

Love them

I should I always used this gauge. Stays tunned very well and sounds killer.

beefy sound

beefy sound with heavy string

Perfect for Drop C#

Perfect for drop C# and good for D standard.

Bad for E standard.

It was what I expected !!!

yes ... for a drop C !!! and drop D standard !!! It's really my wave, great quality of strings !!! good duration and sonarity !!! very good !!!

Good for drop-tuning

Like it says on the packet, it's good for drop tuning. I use them in drop c and it feels amazing

My go-to for low tuned guitars!

If you prefer heavy low tuned guitars, then prefer this set. For me its' the recording standard when I have to deal with heavy tones. Keep in mind, depending on the guitarist, they can loose their brightness faster than other strings but as long as they are fresh they are unbeatable.

Great strings

Ernie ball strings are amazing quality strings, couldn't ask for anymore.
