Description
Ernie Ball has been refining the electric guitar string since 1962, and the Paradigm line represents their biggest engineering leap yet. This 2028 Regular Slinky 7-string set covers gauges .010, .013, .017, .026, .036, .046, and .056, giving extended-range players the familiar Slinky feel with far greater resistance to breakage.
What sets Paradigm apart is the backing behind it: Ernie Ball guarantees these strings against breaking or rusting for 90 days, replacing them if they fail. That confidence comes from ultra-high strength steel used in both the plain and wound strings, plus a patented reinforced ball-end twist on the plain strings that boosts tensile and fatigue strength. The result is a set that tunes up quickly and stays stable through aggressive playing.
Corrosion and grime are handled by a plasma-enhanced wrap wire paired with Ernie Ball’s Everlast nano-treatment, which pushes back against sweat, oils, and buildup without altering the string’s feel or tone — no coated-string stiffness, no flaking.
- Up to 37% greater tensile strength than standard Ernie Ball sets
- Up to 70% greater fatigue strength than standard Ernie Ball sets
- New wire drawing process and RPS technology preserve full strength
- Plasma-enhanced wrap wire for improved corrosion resistance
- Everlast nano-treatment repels oils, sweat, and debris
- Retains the classic Slinky tone and feel, uncoated in character
For 7-string players who push their gear hard, Paradigm Regular Slinky offers durability without sacrificing the tone Ernie Ball built its reputation on.
