Why Choose Ernie Ball 2216 Skinny Top Beefy Bottom Slinky?
- 🎸 Hybrid Gauge Design (11-54) — Light gauges on the high strings (11, 14, 18p) allow effortless bending and fast lead runs, while the heavy low strings (28, 38, 54) deliver tight, punchy low-end response and tuning stability in drop or alternate tunings.
- 🔩 Nickel Wound Construction — Tin-plated hex steel core wrapped with nickel-plated steel wire produces a bright, balanced tone with excellent magnetic output — ideal for high-gain and clean tones alike.
- 🎯 Tuning Stability for Drop Tunings — The heavier bottom strings maintain tension and intonation in drop D, drop C, and other alternate tunings without going slack or losing definition.
- 💪 Trusted by Hard Rock & Metal Players — A favourite among heavy players worldwide who need strings that can handle aggressive picking, palm muting, and heavy riffing without sacrificing upper-register playability.
- ✅ Ernie Ball USA Quality — Manufactured in the USA with premium materials and strict quality control, ensuring consistent tone, feel, and longevity set after set.
