Fantastic sound
5 Stars
Fantastic sound
I am picky regarding the string quality, and it was the first time I decided to switch to Ernie Ball, looking for new sound nuances. I installed these strings on my Ibanez Artcore AFS75. The strings have fantastic tonality, a bit brighter than I expected, but EQ easily compensated for it. Another pleasant surprise was the strings didn't require significant time to adjust the tension, and almost immediately, I was able to play without constantly tuning up. I recommend these strings to guitar players looking for a bright and precise sound. These strings may need some EQing when playing more traditional, warm, jazzy styles.

I must have gone through hundreds of packs of these over the years and every pack has been perfect. The best strings at a fair price, cheers Ernie. You keep making them and I’ll keep buying them.

They are well proven strings with a history. I bought a set 50 years ago, still in business, speaks for itself I would think.
I like the E.B. strings on my Electric Guitars.
