theyre steel strings for electric guitars, lol
i have never played on steel strings before. well, not all steel anyway. usually an alloy with some steel in it, but not 100%. that being said, these have their own sound to the typical strings and alloys i have used over the years i have played guitar. they kind of have a more "twangy" sound than the usual strings. i think these are perfect for a guitar with single coils, like a Strat or Tele. it really brings out that "strat/tele" sound even more so. i like these for those two guitars, but for just about anything else, i dont like them for. its all personal preference tho. you might like them for what youre wanting to do that i dont and its okay. if nothing else, these strings are so cheap that its worth at least giving them a try. as i said tho, i recommend them on a single coil only Strat, or single coil only Tele above all others. as of right now anyway. i am still exploring around and trying out as many different strings as i can, to find "the perfect" string sets for my guitars, just so i know what i like the most on which guitar, so i dont have to keep "searching for that sound in my head" more than i already have and going to in the future. lol... so yeah, if you have a single coil only strat or single coil only tele, i recommend giving these a try. you might like them for that purpose as much as i do,

Good Strings. Brighter Sound.
I like Ernie Ball strings. Mostly I like the sound and I feel they are reasonably priced. Lately, I've been experimenting with these Stainless strings in 9-42 size. Most of my electrics are single coil and I like the added brightness of stainless. Even on my two humbucker guitars, I like what I perceive to be more clarity. 'Course, it could just be that I had not changed my strings in a while and installing a piece of rope would have sounded better. . .

Half are regular Ernie strings
I didn't know what to expect but I gave them a shot despite mixed reviews. I was surprised that they were a mixed set. They sound ok.

Love Ernie Ball strings!
I had a small issue with this product and I reached out using Amazon and couldn't get any help. I went to the manufacturer "Ernie Ball" and the issue was fixed immediately!! I've used Ernie Ball strings since I was 13 years old and I am 50 now and I will continue to use them. Great strings and and they stand behind their product.

Satisfactory cheese cutter wire replacement!
Had a vintage cutter's wire snap and couldn't find the right length replacement anywhere, and couldn't source a good (affordable) wire for making my own. I also had NO idea what diameter/gauge my cutter had been using. This assortment of stainless wire seemed like the perfect way to figure out what I needed! The 16 gauge is the closest to the busted original, and after installing and testing it on a thick cheddar wedge I am very satisfied. The new slightly thinner may actually even slice cheese better than the old wire! I even have enough 16 gauge left for perhaps two more replacements, and now I get to fiddle around with the extra! These would probably even be good for a guitar or something, who knows? Would buy again!

Good strings for the guitar
Wanted something with a lighter sound. These were perfect. Replaced the strings that came with my guitar and they just sound so much better. They are easy to tune and have stayed in tune since I put them on. What a difference it makes using these higher end strings compared to what are put on in a factory.

Unas cuerdas para guitarra muy confiables y baratas, el estándar de las cuerdas de guitarra

Las mejores cuerdas que haya probado, la única cuerda que se me ha roto es la mas gruesa, y eso en 3 meses de puro uso rudo, las demás como si nada, y me sorprende que sigan bien con los bends que hago.

Le Ernie Ball Super Slinky Stainless Steel 9-42 montate ormai da anni sulla mia Gibson SG sono una conferma continua. Il calibro 9-42 è estremamente comodo: bending morbidi, vibrati controllati e zero fatica anche nelle sessioni più lunghe. Sulla SG, che ha già un carattere deciso, queste corde aggiungono brillantezza e definizione, valorizzando gli humbucker senza rendere il suono troppo aggressivo. L’acciaio inox fa la differenza in termini di attacco e durata: il tono resta vivo più a lungo e la sensazione sotto le dita rimane scorrevole anche dopo settimane di utilizzo. In sintesi: affidabili, equilibrate e coerenti nel tempo. Per chi cerca chiarezza, sustain e comfort, sono una scelta che difficilmente delude.
