Ernie Ball 2836 Regular Slinky 5-stars Reviews

Great strings

Use them for some basic funk, both fingerstyle as well as slap. These strings have a nice and bright sound, but with deep bass in the low registers. They are used on a bass with active electronics, however even without an amp they sound just great!

Favourite strings

One of my two favourite string brands

Great strings

It is the second time I am putting these on my bass.

Seems that this strings combine some good characteristics. They are bright enough but carry a good low end too. The most important part for me is the playability as they are soft enough to help some fast playing and bending techniques, but the still keep a firm position at the same time. Another good point is that the keep a good sound for a really long time. Been beating them a lot in rehearsals and on stage and they seem to handle the use nicely. You may lose the brighter side earlier than a set of steels but it feels that the punch that these strings carry till the end of their life is enough to compensate.

Will probably be coming back to these next time around too.

All-round amazing strings

Great value for the money. The strings are comfortable to play and have a clear and bright tone. They seem to be very durable and also seem to preserve the tone for much longer than other strings at the same price.

A classic!

I've been using these for 20 years now and they never disappoint! Perfect for clean out of the box sounds or for those more heavy sounds. Well balanced and constant from one pack to another, never had a bad patch.

Real good choice for Musicman Basses

I have tested different strings on my Musicman Reflex, but no strings bring the original sound over as good as the Ernie Balls. The strings have a pleasant tension and are not too rough.

Ernie Ball Regular Slinky

Lovely strings, smooth to the touch, with a clear and bright tone, that lasts well compared to other strings I have tried, even with continuous use.

Best strings I've ever used.

Tone lasts much longer than any strings out there. Used on Bongo, MM5er and 4er.

Great value and great sound

Have you read the users list for these things??? After trying them you realise why they are so popular. Great sounding, long lasting, and very competitively priced. Try them...you'll understand what the fuss was about.

Great product

Very good quality strings. Easy to fit and great sound
