Amazon Customer: Every guitar I've owned , the first thing I do is replace the strings with a set of these high quality light gauge strings . I've always preferred extra light strings , and believe these are the best . Good price , great strings .

Juanan: Llevo varios juegos con estas cuerdas, y las Ernie Ball 10-46 se adaptan a mi modo de tocar la guitarra perfectamente, otras cuerdas se oxidan o no aguantan el tirón de un bending, más que recomendables, son las cuerdas que, por su precio, dan mucho más que otras más caras

Nicolò: È una serie di corde che uso frequentemente, con delle buone prestazioni.
Migliori delle D'Addario ma comunque non al livello delle Blue Steel fanno bene il loro lavoro, peccato per il Mi cantino che va via sempre troppo presto...

Peter Duffy: I've never had a string break. Love Ernie Balls Strings. From Strats to Les Pauls. Excellent string choice in my humble opinion.

RaisRais: I've always ran manufacturer gauge sizes but I've always been a fan of EB strings. I saw a few recommendations for running smaller gauges and pure nickel for the sound I was chasing so I gave it a shot.

Fantastic.

I didn't expect dropping such a small amount in gauge size would be so different but the feel and tone of these strings is absolutely phenomenal. I've also never ran pure nickel strings and usually opt for wound, but they feel and play fantastic. Definitely going to be my go-to for my strats going forward.

Colin: I’ve tried a gazillion bunch of strings from the old standards like these to expensive boutique strings.
These Super Slinky’s are as good as any of them: they tune up, hold pitch, play great, feel great and sound great.
What more could you ask for? Sure you can spend two to three times as much on the boutique brands but you’re really just throwing your money away.
I dig these and will continue using them.

Alikszandör B: Im an intermediate player, and have always had trouble with hand stamina ( applying pressure while playing for 10 minutes). And string bending/ pushing up an octave like the solo in hotel California? Yeah, forget it. I didn't know why I couldn't pull it off.

Turns out I had thick disgusting strings. It's no wonder the legends were able to pull off amazing solos with this. It literally feels like heaven. So smooth, and soft to touch. They feel elegant. Yet, somehow they're very strong. I had wound them up wrong so I took them out and wound up again, no problem.

The strings come with PLENTY of excess, and by plenty I mean at least 5" extra in case you have trouble or need to readjust.

Tone is incredible. Warm yet clear, rich and complex. It does very much sound like a 70s rock band especially on a les Paul.

And for the price of 7$? Kidding me? D'addario sells some strings for 20$+ where I live. Literally THE greatest strings I had. Absolutely give it a try if you're a newbie. They will ease your play and your fingers and sanity will thank you for it.

Alondra: the strings work great and are also pretty easy to install. Gives it that good feeling when playing and has a clean sound
