The Ernie Ball Super Slinky is one of the most widely used electric guitar string sets around — a 9-42 gauge that's been a go-to choice for players across just about every genre for decades. If you've ever bought a set of strings without thinking too hard about it, there's a good chance this is what you grabbed.
The wound strings are built from nickel-plated steel wire wrapped around a hex-shaped steel core, while the plain strings use specially tempered tin-plated high-carbon steel. That combination gives you a well-balanced feel from top to bottom — light enough on the high strings for comfortable bending, with enough body on the lows to hold their own. Individual string gauges are .009, .011, .016, .024w, .032, and .042.
