I really like these strings. I played Super Slinkys for 5 years exclusively, and they were good strings, but after hearing Daron Malikan day he used heavier strings, I decided to look into it. I heard Dick Dale used Piano strings, Jack White was using huge strings, and so was Kurt Cobain, so I went to my local music shop to buy new strings. I play 3 guitars with 3 turnings, so i decided to buy 3 different gauges of strings. I bought one pack of Regular, one Not Even Slinky, and one pack of Skinny Top/Heavy Bottoms. I put the regs on a standard tuned axe, the not evens on a whole step down guitar, and skinny top/heavy bottoms on a guitar tuned half down. They were by far my favorite strings. I love the feel of them under my fingers as I'm banging away at power chords, and the feel of them shredding fast. I've sense switched from regs to hybrid, and from not evens, to another set of ST/HB. Most Guitar players have to make a choice; light shredder's strings, or loud heavy strings. That is no longer the case. These things are the middle ground, and trust me, it's no compromise. They are perfect for a guitar player who wants to hit his guitar as hard as he can, but still likes to kill the solos. If you buy these strings, you will not be disappointed, and for that small price, what's stopping you?

I just started playing guitar a couple months ago and I play alot of Dead Kennedys music, and i asked a guy at guitar center what strings were the best for that type of music he told me these were good but as soon as i put them on my guitar i played California Uber alles and the A string snapped. A few days later i threw them away and bought some Misfits strings. If you play real Punk like DK, then dont buy these they suck even though they say theyre thicker than normal

Comments about Ernie Ball 2215 Nickel Skinny Top/Heavy Bottom Electric Guitar Strings:
I use these strings on both my guitars, they are second to none. I pound the hell out of these strings and in 6 years have NEVER broke one. And the slinky bottom makes soloing very easy. They hold tune and tone longer then any string i ever used before. And with the "Finger Ease" i get a good couple to three months out of them with pretty moderate use. All in All the best overall strings ive used.

Comments about Ernie Ball 2215 Nickel Skinny Top/Heavy Bottom Electric Guitar Strings:
I got these strings for my friend since his old ones were on there last leg. After putting them on, we noticed a difference, a good difference!! Having played mainly in D standard, Drop C and occasionally Drop A (Korn) these strings held very well and let you hear every note from Power Chords to Pinch Harmonics no note is left dull or bum.

Comments about Ernie Ball 2215 Nickel Skinny Top/Heavy Bottom Electric Guitar Strings:
These strings are great. If you play punk rock, or any type of rock, these strings will be way better than the lights, and regulars. I'm defiantly sticking with these for a while.
Comments about Ernie Ball 2215 Nickel Skinny Top/Heavy Bottom Electric Guitar Strings:
These strings are good, I wouldn't recommend going below drop D on a standard neck length, but then again I don't like my strings to wobble.
Great for Drop D, and 'maybe' drop C#.
Ernie Ball are always a good pick for strings, and these are high quality strings
They are mid priced
Comments about Ernie Ball 2215 Nickel Skinny Top/Heavy Bottom Electric Guitar Strings:
good string's

there good string's i would use them for rythem guitar.
Comments about Ernie Ball 2215 Nickel Skinny Top/Heavy Bottom Electric Guitar Strings:
These strings have an average life span I suppose.. I always change them once a month. Make sure you set your neck and intonation up if you switch to these from 9's or 10's. They are perfect for my Gibson SG's scale length. They sound good for any style.
Best strings I've ever used. Perfect for Eb tuning, you can really dig in on the lows and shred and bend on the highs. Perfect for thrash/hardcore.
this much for a pack? what more could you ask for?!
Comments about Ernie Ball 2215 Nickel Skinny Top/Heavy Bottom Electric Guitar Strings:
I love them. I've been using these strings for six years, I've tried numerous other ones to try change, but I keep coming back.
They're strings... They feature small high strings and large low strings; great for heavy rhythm and easy, bendable leads.
Last just as long as any non-coated strings.
