Ernie Balls are Slippery

Indeed, and this set takes slink and slip to its extremes. I wanted to try these for a while and they do not dissapoint. Bending? Yea!

Tuning seems OK on my PRS ... but if you are having problems just get some graphite on your nuts.

Please forgive me, but it's difficult to write a review about Ball's, Slippery and Nuts without descending into a nod and wink.

Ernie Ball 2217 Zippy Slinky strings are high-quality electric guitar strings designed for musicians who appreciate a bright and energetic sound. Here are a few key features and benefits of this model:

Bright sound: Zippy Slinky strings provide a bright and rich sound that stands out well from other instruments. This makes them an ideal choice for musical genres where you want to accentuate melodies and riffs.

Energetic sound: Thanks to their construction and materials (e.g. nickel-plated steel), Zippy Slinky strings provide an energetic and dynamic sound. They are perfect for high-intensity playing and styles that require more attack and volume.

Durability and longevity: Ernie Ball is known for its quality materials and meticulous manufacturing. Zippy Slinky strings have a durable construction that allows them to retain their sound and tuning for a long time, even under heavy use.

Versatility: Although these strings have a bright and energetic sound, they can still be used in a variety of musical styles. They perform well in rock, metal, and other genres where an expressive and powerful sound is important.

best ever

the "thick strings give better tone" debate, for me, it has mostly been a myth, I have practiced electric and classical guitar for many years. For me, playability always came first, I believe in low action and ultra thin strings. Check out the story of Billy Gibbons and BB King in regard to 7s!

Had a specific guitar I thought these might work on, but unshockingly I found them unusably thin, and they snapped immediately in summer humidity haha.
