Electric Guitar Strings Ernie Ball 2221 Regular Slinky - (10-46) Review

Ernie Ball Slinky strings are perhaps the most famous series of strings in the world. American quality, time-tested, as well as hundreds of famous musicians such as Jimi Page, Jeff Beck, Buddy Guy, Slash, Eric Clapton, Steve Vai, John Petrucci and many others. For the convenience of musicians, the manufacturer has introduced color coding of packaging and names of strings within the series (Regular Slinky, Hybrid Slinky, Super Slinky and others) to identify sets with different string gauges. Almost all other strings for electric guitars from Ernie Ball are based on these strings: Stainless Steel Slinky, RPS Slinky, Pure Nickel Slinky (aka Classic Rock), Cobalt Slinky, Coated Slinky, which have some or other modified characteristics. Thick strings consist of a hexagonal steel core and nickel-plated steel braid. The thin strings are made from tin-plated (thinly tin-coated) high-carbon steel, which gives the guitar a balanced tone. Ernie Ball Regular Slinky strings are a set for 6-string electric guitar with string gauges 10-46. As the name suggests, this is the standard string gauge that most guitar manufacturers recommend setting on their instruments to play in standard tuning. A very versatile kit. The strings are supplied in sealed packaging, which protects them from environmental influences and guarantees their safety during long-term storage and transportation. Inside the package, each string is packed in a separate paper envelope. Features: Instrument: electric guitar, 6 strings String gauges: 10-13-17-26-36-46 Thick strings: Nickel-plated steel braid on a hexagonal steel core Thin strings: tin-plated high carbon steel
