Great strings

E1B_ 24.03.2022

I've used EB and D'Addario and even Thomman home brand (Harley Benton) bass strings before, however these are my favourites so far.

My string of choiche for D standard, drop C and drop B

L. Richard 15.12.2021

I change things up and try out different brands, but for some reason I always come back to this. I love hybrid sets and Ernies sounds the more even between strings.

Nice strings

NoOne2 06.02.2023

I like lower tunings but i like to retain slinky feeling top strings while the lower strings are tighter. This lets me do exactly that at #C standard on 25.5 in scale guitar. These strings can be used for longer scales too with similar results and even lower tunings. I usualy use 9-46 hybrids on 25.5 so this is essentially the same when tuned step and a half down. Great strings! I would buy again.

The best for that price

DC85 08.11.2022

This specific "skinny top beefy bottom" (hmmm..) setup is only offered (afaik) by Ernie Ball.
They are cheap and yes, not as durable and clear sounding as D'Addario NYXL series, but they do the job quite well.

Drop A on medium scale? This is your meds

SekiMagoroku5 10.09.2020

Ordering this strings for my lil brother since he only have HB student series SG type, which is medium scale and custom gauge like this is really seldomly available on our local store.

This strings does help big time since at this time, my brother's composing their new songs which required Drop A tune and he refuses to use my baritone guitar since he wanted to use his own instrument, for his own accomplishment.

I can't say this strings durability is good for you or bla bla bla since every strings react differently to each person. My brother cannot use the cobalt one without corroding it after a week, but this one always last at least month before start to corrode.

If you want it clear sounding profile, then it is for you. I personally like this strings but cant stay long with me.Even pricy DR cant help me except D'addario..My advice, search for your right strings doesnt matter the price..This though I recommend it for starting point.

Perfect for bending in lower tunings

Karlis I 02.08.2021

I use these strings on my drop-B tuned 25.5" scale length guitar. I do a lot of bending, and these strings seem perfect- they are soft enough for the deepest bends and hard enough for chuggs. I've tried some other Ernie Ball sets, but they didn't feel right for lower tunings, so I definitely recommend this for drop-B - IF you like to BEND.

Ernie Ball never disappoint!

Nak0r 10.04.2020

Was normally using Skinny Top Heavy Bottom sets, but i tune to drop C, so i often thought i could use a little bit more beef on the low strings. And here is Ernie Ball giving me exactly what i want as always! Great strings, with the quality Ernie Ball has gotten us used to! Can't go wrong!

Good strings for drop tuning to Drop D

Alex mls 10.05.2021

The highers strings are standard gauge, when I tuned it to Drop C or B it was a bit flaccid. But these are Ernie Balls, of course they are very well made. Good for Drop D imo, maybe even Standard E if you are hardcore
