Ernie Ball 2222 Slinky Nickel Wound Electric Hybrid Slinky 9-46
Ernie Ball Slinky Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings — Hybrid Slinky 9-46
The Industry-Standard Slinky, in a Best-of-Both Hybrid Set
The Ernie Ball Slinky Nickel Wound in Hybrid Slinky 9-46 is the string that generations of players grew up on — bright, balanced, and full, with the effortless playability the Slinky name is known for. The Hybrid Slinky pairs Super Slinky top strings with slightly heavier bottom strings, so you get easy-bending highs and a punchy, solid low end in one set.
Bright, Balanced Nickel Tone
Nickel-plated steel wrap wire delivers the classic Slinky voice: crisp attack, clear highs, and a full midrange that cuts through any mix. It is the do-everything electric string for rock, blues, country, and everything in between.
