Product ReviewsErnie Ball 2221 Guitar Strings

Easy-to-play strings

Although 'tens' these strings are very light and bendy in action, they are in fact a consideration over 'nines', which could be a little tinier in sound. These strings would play well on many guitars, including the Strat'. I am using them on a Jazz guitar and the Guitar is still maintaining a very good tone, and the best advantage is that string bending is very easy. No frustration of trying to bend '12's!Read full review...

My favourite brand

These strings have been my favourite for decades. I've tried other brands but nothing else feels as good, break in so quickly, or last as long.

A better choice for me than the 10/46 strings, good quality, better sustain, tuning stability good.

Improved sound/sustain over usual 10/46 strings when fitted to all my guitars (Strat and Tele style kits, Les Paul copy.) These are now my standard strings, no issues with sore fingers due to increase in gauge. Tuning stability is excellent.Read full review...

Great strings

I usually use Ernie Ball or Rotosound strings. I have tried just about every other brand but always come back to these. I don't think there's a real quality difference, it's more that these play well for me, and sound the way I want.Read full review...

Ernie Ball 10s

I've always thought Ernie Ball strings were good value for money but until recently had always used 009s. 010s offer just the same stability and zing for the same price but with just a little extra tension that I have come to like.Read full review...

Ernie Ball strings

They're just guitar strings, they work, no problems with them. Buy them, they're as good as anyting else out there. If you're buying to just slice slice cheese, I'd go, high E, B, G in that order. D, A, low E may present problems. If you're planning on garroting someone, the situation may be reversed, but I'm kinda flying in the dark here as I've never tried them for anything else but guitar playing.Read full review...

Good strings

Good strings, my guitar has a floating bridge and these strings stay in tune compared to a few others! I like these and will continue to use this brand.
