Ernie Ball 2251 4-stars Reviews

Good sound at a reasonable price.

I use them all the time because of their price vs sound relativity. They rarely break. For better sound, i use Elixir, but since they cost almost twice, I 'm not sure they're worth it. These are just as reliable and cost effective if you play all the time and change your strings often.

Nice classic tone

Nice classic tone a you'd expect from Ernie Ball. Have noticed they last slightly less than other strings I have tried and can start "floating" tuning-wise in the end. But it might be just me.

Sound Awesome...BUT!

They Sound AMAZING....... real proper Zep' sounding strings BUT I did break 3 of them putting them on (good thing I had bought 2 packs, 1 as a spare). They seem to break really easily. I broke 2 putting them on and then a lower E when I used by Bigsby, used a little a ...*snap*. Other than I love then, the sound is amazing and they feel silky smooth to play on.

Ernie ball quality to depend on

If you dig this type of strings then you won't be disappointed by how EB manufactures their strings.

Wasn't my bag - too harsh sounding for me. Standard EB strings sound great, are well made, and never let me down. I'll stick with them.
