Review: Great strings and fast delivery - Great strings and good price.
Review: great strings - For years, I've played 8s, but I want to move up to 9s in the hope of a slightly thicker sound, so bought these as a stepping stone. They play great. I can feel the difference, but that's good because I didn't know if I would. I play virtually every day, and after two weeks, they still sound as bright as the day I changed them, and they still feel as silky smooth. Terrific strings.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it low in sugar?**
A: Yes, sugar-free in fact. You could always sprinkle some on though if that's your preference.

**Q: Will these work on a Gibson Les Paul Special II?**
A: Short answer, yes. They will work on most guitars, provided they are the proper scale length. The high e is prone to snapping without much effort. Mine snapped after 2 weeks of regular use whilst loosening them up for guitar maintenance. Still good value though.

**Q: Do they play ok in C# standard?**
A: Yes they play fine in most tunings above standard A

**Q: I restrung my guitar with these strings (they are the right gauge for the guitar) but now all the frets are a semitone out of tune. Any way to fix?**
A: Make sure your intonation is set correctly.  To check intonation, fret string at twelfth fret then do open harmonic at same fret. They should sound the same.if sharp or flat then adjust bridge saddle.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for drop tuning
*by C***S on 12 January 2026*

Really nice thick strings. I used them for drop A tuning and they were far better than a set of 9's which were too loose when tuned to drop A. As usual from Earnie Ball the strings feel really nice to play and are excellent quality.
