Ernie Ball Primo Slinky Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings, 9.5-44 Gauge (P02212)

This arrangement of gauges... It's a nice middle ground between the ease and playability afforded by Super Slinkys alongside the tonal richness and sustain of Regular Slinkys. And they're Ernie Ball strings, which means they have brilliant longevity, price, and tone from beginning to end.

I’ve used the similar Daddario 9.5-44 set for years. The regular 9 and 10 sets were either too floppy/uneven or too stiff, respectively. The main thing I didn’t like about the 9.5-44 set was the B string, which always felt looser than the rest of them. It always felt like it’s stuck out like a sore thumb, but I just put up with it. So when I saw Ernie Ball made an identical set except for a very slightly larger B string (12 vs 11.5), I bought the three pack for the heck of it to see how they fared. Ernie Ball strings always had a warmer rounder tone right out of the package, and it was nice to go back to that sound after all these years (I used Pink Slinky’s back in 1994). With a tighter and more even feeling B string now, I think this is going to be my go to set for all of my guitars. I’ve had this set on my guitar for about three weeks and they still sound fresh. I don’t gig or anything so it’s usually an hour or two a day after work in the air conditioning. They seem like good strings and aren’t going dull yet, which was how I remember them back in the 90s. Highly recommended.

They have a good feel and they sound great these are a good value

I just don't like how they feel!! Tone seems ok along with quality but not the right string for me. This is very, subjective so don't rely on my opinion. Try them yourself. I'm going back to my old brand. Also it could be my guitar. It does have a PRS style trem and warm low output pickups so that maybe a factor. Intonation & stability seems fine. They aren't to tight or hurt but don't like the sound or feel. Just ok! I like brighter I guess. Hope this helps!!

Perfect for my taste! Slinkier than .010s and brighter than .009s!

Love these strings and how they're set up gauge wise almost thick as a 10 on the bottom but it keeps the top e string small great sounding

The Second order couldn’t get here Nobody wants to do their job This is the second order since signing up for Prime shipping that mysteriously can’t get to me as ordered Amazon is run by amateurs Pay for your screw ups Jassy

Had been using D'Addario's standard 9-42 since the 80s but was trying a higher string gage. 10 was too much, so I tried 9.5 not realizing they were Ernie Ball. They are great. I will probably go back to a 9 set, but it will be Ernie Ball.

🤌🤌🤌

Kvalité som vanligt , mitt emellan 009 & 010

Usually I play the normal 9-42 gauge but I tried this one cause it was on sale and I gotta admit, I do enjoy the sound of this much more. I didn't normally play around with different string gauges but if you want a slightly deeper richer sound than your normal gauge, go for it. EB strings are definitely worth the money considering other companies also have similar price points with little variation. Also compared to other strings, I feel like EB are a lot more comfortable to play. The nickel wounding feels better on the fingers compared to other brands. I mean it's popular for a reason so definitely go for it!

Achei perfeita pra quem é acostumado com calibre 010 e precisa de uma tensão um pouco menor sem precisar mexer na regulagem da guitarra. Facilita muito pra certas técnicas mas mantém o som encorpado das cordas mais graves. Virou meu novo encordoamento preferido

Niente da dire, le ernie sono tra le migliori corde consigliate! Ottimo prezzo se si acquista il pacco da 3 confezioni. Packaging impagabile e sempre fighissimo!
