Ernie Ball 2836 Regular Slinky 5-stars Reviews

Amazing guitar strings.

They sound and feel great.

Quality standard

One of the best strings in price/quality ratio

Perfect Addition

I put these straight on my new Harley Benton MB-5 SB Deluxe Series. No problem fitting and made the bass an order of magnitude better. Would highly recommend.

Overall good.

Good quality but not the best on the market.

They sound great, crisp and clear.

Very good variant for the price

Bought that strings for replacing factory strings on my new guitar. Very good tone and feel, I suppose its the best variant for the price among brands

My favorite

Great strings that keeps the brightness over time. Have tried other strings over the years, but always return to the Regular slinky. Going through beteeen 15-20 sets a year, and still not found a "dead" string also tells a story of quality across the produktion.

Spares

Can't go wrong with Ernie.

Quality sound

Great strings! I love it!

Perfect in every single way

My only regret in finding out about Ernie Ball is that I wish that I would have found out about them a lot sooner.

D'addario? DR? Forget about those. Get yourself some of these now.

Bright, punchy, warm, long sustain, great longevity, incredible value, GREAT low B string, and works practically for every kind of instrument I have - 4, 5, 6 string bass guitars, fretted and fretless, all genres.

Great Bass Strings

Have been using Ernie Ball strings for years. great strings last a very long time. Sound great come well packaged and easy to clean.

provide a clear punchy sound both from finger style as well as playing with a pick. come very well packaged

Ernie Ball Bass 5! Thank you!

As a veteran session and live performance bassist of 45 years, string quality has always been an important aspect. I had tried at least 5 different name-brands before settling on the Ernie Ball "slinky" series. For my vintage fretless 5 string, I use the 2836 regular slinky "Bass 5" set. The strings break in quick and the harmonic response , tonality and flexibility seem to last for up to 8 months even under heavy use! Likewise, the slinky strings don?t "eat" my fingerboard, which is very important when using round wound strings on a fretless bass. I will add to all the above that Ernie Ball bass strings are in my opinion, the best "band for the buck" for any professional bassist .I will remain a loyal endorser of the "Slinky Bass 5" set and highly recommend it as the best all around string to my fellow "5 stringers" for durability, harmonic response and affordability. In 3 words: These Strings last!!!

Nice bendy strings, they sound quite warm without getting too "metallic"

Nice for price

Look at the price and quality.

Nothing to say more.

It's Ernie Ball...

I'm an Ernie Ball user for over a decade now. They are consistent, hadn't had a string break in like forever.

The price is great, choice of gauges is great, availability is great... 5/5, would tattoo it on my arm.

rich sound

in the past ernie ball strings were famous for the brilliant and rich sound. anyway they last a few hours, at least on my instruments. some month ago I decied to give them a second chance. Not sure what is changed, wether construction or my hands...but now the sound is great and the duration is now acceptable. They last several months now.

Cool

Best for the money!

Stings are Stings - Ernie ball however are best!

very long durability

I love these strings because they hold good sound very long time. Tone is smooth and good for slap.

Sounds like new after more than one year.

I don't play bass very often, but it always sits next to me when I make music; a fast check of a bass line I write, a quick line recording... etc.

I ordered these strings because I was familiar with the quality of the Ernie Ball guitar strings. The bass strings didn't disappoint; clear sound, consistent response in all registers, consistent tuning, and after more than a year of having them on my bass, they still have that "new strings" open sound.

By far my favorite strings!

I have a Musicman Stingray 5 and it came with Ernie Ball strings. I just love the clarity and the punch they give to the tone! They sound phenomenal!
