Great strings at a great price.

Excellent quality
9.5 is the perfect gauge for me. You wouldn't think .5 would make any real difference, but they feel much better than a regular 9 gauge and are perfect if you don't like the extra rigidity of 10 gauge strings. Great value for the three pack I bought as well.

Long lasting
After being a long time user of D'addario strings I had problems with the last 2 sets, so after looking at all the different strings I thought I'd give these a try, guess what, these are now my go to set, lovely tone and feel, also they last longer than the previous ones

Theyre strings, they work, still expensive
Thats all.

Great
These strings have been around a long time and there’s a reason for that, I was a diehard d’addario user but these last so much longer, in fact they’re on par with the Elixir strings longevity and that’s saying something. To add I’ve recently put 10-52 on as I’m playing in a drop Eb, still great set and feel more natural with the tension being lowered

Beefier than 9’s, but not as tight as 10’s
Bought these for my strat as I thought the 9’s on it were a bit too slack. At first I was sceptical that there would be a need for a gauge between 9&10, but these feel great. I’ve tried diaddario’s, rotosounds and others, but always come back to Ernie ball’s as they stay bright for longer and just nicer than the rest.

Love These
Great strings. I used to use Rotosound 9/46, which I liked very much, but these are just perfect for me. They feel perfectly balanced, good longevity and a great tone.

Perfect fit for me!
Depending on which guitar I'm playing I can find 10 gauge a little bit cumbersome to bend and 09 gauge too thin causing me to overbend now and then. I find this 9.5 gauge ideal. First time I've tried them.More tone and volume than 09s and more playable than 10s. Very reasonable price. Just right for me.

Excellent product for my telecaster and stratocaster, they seem to stay fresh longer therefore a nice bright sound & feel

In my opinion one of the best strings around for it's price level. Many different sizes and options to choose from. Unified quality gives what you expect.

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.
