Description
Ernie Ball’s Power Slinky set has earned its reputation among players who want extra beef under their fingers without sacrificing articulation. Guitarists like Slash, Metallica’s lineup, and Kenny Wayne Shepherd have gravitated toward this gauge combination because the added thickness delivers a fuller, more forceful tone that suits driving rock and gritty blues alike.
Construction follows Ernie Ball’s proven formula: nickel-plated steel wire wrapped around a hex-shaped steel core on the wound strings, paired with specially tempered, tin-plated high carbon steel on the plain strings. The result is a set that stays balanced across the neck, with enough low-end punch for power chords and enough clarity for lead work.
String gauges in this set:
- .011 (plain)
- .014 (plain)
- .018p (plain)
- .028 (wound)
- .038 (wound)
- .048 (wound)
This listing is for a 12-pack case, giving gigging players, teachers, and shops a steady supply of one of the most trusted gauge sets in electric guitar strings. Stock up once and skip the reorder for a while – a smart move whether you’re outfitting a touring rig or just tired of running out mid-tour.
