Round-wound for maximum clarity and serious punch.

Ernie Ball Baritone Slinkys are round-wound for maximum clarity and serious punch. These sets are optimal for A-A or B-B tuning combinations and are a perfect match for hybrid baritone instruments. The strings have small ball ends like guitar strings, not the large ball ends used on bass sets. The list of endorsers for Ernie Ball Slinky bass strings reads like a who's who of today's top selling artists. Gauges .013 .018p .030 .044 .056 .072

Comments about Ernie Ball 2839 Baritone Electric Guitar String Set:

I've been using these since I bought my PRS Mike Mushok baritone (my favorite guitar I own!) These strings are perfect for this guitar (27.7 inch baritone scale) and the tuning I use in my band which is Drop C with a low G on the bottom (low to high GCGCFA)The tension, for me at least, is perfect and I've no complaints about any strings being too loose or too tight. The only thing I don't like is, well, I'm just not an Ernie Ball fan.. but these strings are convenient in that they are perfect and work great for my tuning so I can't think of any down sides to them. Long lasting and great sounding strings. I highly recommend these strings to anyone wanting to tune to Drop A or lower, any higher and they'll be really tight.

    If guitar has a Bigsby strings might not be long enough

    By Flintkid-day-3

    from Clarksville, TN

    Comments about Ernie Ball 2839 Baritone Electric Guitar String Set:

    I bought these for a Bigsby equipped Gretch Baritone only to find out that the two center strings were about an inch too short. After some fishing around in my stash of regular guitar strings I was able to stumble across a couple of replacements also made by slinky that were the right length. If you plan to put these on a bigsby equipped guitar I'd steer clear. Otherwise, they're great strings.

    pretty good

    By Jesse-1KVUe

    from washington

    Comments about Ernie Ball 2839 Baritone Electric Guitar String Set:

    if you want to experiment with low tunings definatly try these out, i would recomend them to anyone looking for really heavy gauges!
    i got these and the elixir baritones for my agile pendulum pro (27-25.5scale), i would have to say they are pretty good out of the box but i did break my 13 (by stupidity not a manufacturing flaw)so i had to replace it. i changed the 13 to a 14, and the 18 to a 22 to balance it more. anyway the 72 is soo big i had to file the nut down to make it fit :/ but now it works perfectly. i have it tuned to drop f# (F# is still kinda floppy)and G# standard most of the time but you could go up even higher like to A standard! the 72 doesnt care how tight it goes!! the tone is great (tight and bright) and they have lasted a while so far. anyway before you buy remember most guitars with standard nuts will have to be filed out a little to fit the 72, soo youve been warned!
    could be better
    best for the price!
