## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why are these ranked #1 in the category "Fishing" ?**
A: When a company puts a product in some obscure category, they can get the "best seller" icon when they inevitably get more sales than the other products in that category. That's how you end up searching for something like "guitar strings", and multiple products show up as the #1 seller. Why Amazon still allows this after all these years, I will never know.

**Q: Do all 6 strings come in the "1 pack"?**
A: If you note on the front of the package, it has a list of numbers (10, 13, 17, 26, 36, 46 on the "Regular Slinky" set, and similar on others). These are the string gauges included in the pack. If there were only one string in the pack, it would list a single number, because you'd have to know which string it was.

**Q: what is the difference between slinky and non slinky?**
A: Slinky is just a line of strings from Ernie Ball, the "Slinkier" they are the thinner they are, regular Slinky are 10 gauge strings, super slinky are 9s, and "Not Even Slinky" strings are 12s (the number represents the gauge of the lightest string in the set).

**Q: I'm looking for extra strings for my new Les Paul Special II. I'm buing guitar from amazon, it costs $149. Are this strings compatible?**
A: Short answer, yes they should be fine. Long answer, the comparability between strings and guitars doesnt matter, its the string slots that in the nut that matter. The les Paul's usually use bigger strings anyway.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great classic strings!!
*by N***H on June 9, 2025*

Ernie Ball Regular Slinky strings are an absolute game-changer! The perfect balance of tone, feel, and durability makes them my go-to choice every time. They have a bright, crisp sound with rich mids and punchy lows, making them ideal for everything from blues to rock to metal.What really sets them apart is their smooth playability—bends feel effortless, and they hold their tuning exceptionally well. Plus, their longevity is impressive; they don’t lose their brilliance quickly like other strings I’ve tried. Whether you’re shredding, riffing, or playing clean, these strings respond beautifully. Highly recommended for any guitarist looking for reliability and great tone! Great value for my money!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good strings at a reasonable price.
*by R***S on July 3, 2025*

Classic Ernie Ball strings. Work perfectly, sound good, lower price than individual packs. These are real Ernie Balls, or at least the ones I got were.I did break one high E after a couple weeks, but I bought a pile of generic individual 10's for my Ibanez trem equipped guitars, because I swap the high E 0.09 for a 0.10 due to excessive breakage...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great price and performance
*by J***R on June 21, 2025*

Hard to go wrong with time tested strings like these. Sliding, bending, hammer on or pull off isn't a problem for these good quality, good sounding strings.These will get you a nice bright tone or nice and dirty no problem. Never had a problem with tension or staying tuned. Great price and performance.
