Description
Why choose between easy bends and beefy low-end when you can have both? Ernie Ball’s Skinny Top Heavy Bottom Slinky set is built for players who want to rip fast leads on the thin strings while their bottom end stays thick, tight, and ready for down-tuned riffs. It’s the go-to hybrid gauge for guitarists bouncing between rhythm and lead in the same song.
The wound strings pair nickel-plated steel wire with a hex-shaped steel core for a punchy, well-rounded tone that holds up under aggressive picking. Up top, the plain strings use specially tempered, tin-plated high carbon steel, giving you smooth bendability without feeling flimsy under your fingers. Together they deliver the balanced voice Ernie Ball Slinkys are known for — bright, articulate, and never harsh.
This is a stock-up 12-pack, so you’re covered for months of restrings without a mid-tour scramble to find your gauge. Grab a fresh set the moment your tone starts sounding dull instead of waiting until a string snaps mid-set.
- Gauges: .010 .013 .017 .030 .042 .052
- Nickel plated steel wound strings over hex steel core
- Tin plated high carbon steel plain strings

Stash a few sets in your case, your bag, and your car — you’ll never be caught with dead strings again.
