Genuine Ernie Ball Strings. Easy to install. String quality is good. Nothing bad to say about these strings. They're very fairly priced so I usually stock up on a couple and can easily swap them out without much stress.

Great strings, sound good and easy to use. I play a stratocaster, and before I bought these I hadn't changed my strings in 3 years, but they were still holding up well.

Pretty much industry standard. Genuine strings.

Have been playing recreationally for 35 years. Initially it was always Enie Ball Super Slinky 9s, then the heavier guages came in vogue, I tried 10s, 11s, 12s?, mixed sets, various brands, but I had mixed feelings about them for various reasons. Mindful of putting off arthritic issues/RSI and looking to make life easier, I tried these Mighty Slinky 8.5s. Can't be happier, these work brilliantly on my 2003 Epiphone SG, which has a fixed bridge. I don't tend to do huge amounts of big string bends, and there's no tremelo. It seems to sound good and play well, with the bonus that nothing seems overly stressed including my fingers, but also the standard string grooves in the nut. For me string breakages using these 8.5s are fairly rare, so not always an occurrence between changes, which are probably six months to a year apart, unless a break happens. Breakage rate for me seems broadly, very much like any of the other guage/sets I have tried (pretty low?). These Ernie Ball strings always seem well priced, good quality, and nicely presented. Totally happy with them, over and over again.

Great make of strings which I always buy and a great price too
