Ernie Ball Skinny Top Heavy Bottom Slinky Cobalt 7-String Electric Guitar Strings - 10-62 Gauge

What a set of strings! Playability is top notch and sound is crisp and clear. Taken my 7 string to the next level

My purpose for these strings was to drop my thick E string to an A (Drop-A). With the regular strings the E string is very loose and sounds awful so after looking into the matter i found these and they are perfect. The tone is amazing, there are 7 strings for use with a 7 string guitar but you can use just 6 strings on a regular guitar and just not use the 0.42 string. Strings: 62=E/A 42=A 30=D 17=G 13=b 10=e

More and more I've recently been gettings severely miffed with my entry level LTD 7 string, even to the point of thinking about selling it. The low B was too floppy and a nightmare to tune and the whole guitar sounded dull. This was a last ditch attempt to make me like the 7 string, so I chose this set, being heavy at the bottom end and the same gauge as my 6 string at the top. They've made the whole guitar sound like a different instrument entirely. No more floppiness on the low B, tuning stability vastly improved and everything feels far more tight and precise. Not sure how people who prefer a light gauge would find the lower end strings, but being a bass player as well, it wasn't a problem for me. Sticking with these strings from now on.

The best strings I have ever bought. Hardly ever go out of tune and last for ages. Definitely the ones to buy.

replaced the regular gauge 10 - 56 gauge on my seven string because the lower tunings where constantly going out of tune. these strings are very zingy and bright and hold the lower tunings...not sure about the major bright difference though? would recommend that you take your valued seven string to a guitar tech though, because the nut slot may need widening out to accomodate the thicker gauge strings, as well as adjusting neck action and intonation. mine did and therefore, rather than trying it yourself and potentially ruining your guitar, it costs about £40-£60 for a pro guitar tech to set it all up that first time for you. overall, really great strings, although a bit pricey.

I actually used this on my 6 string and it handled drop G#, no problem. All the heavies. Much djent. Pick-up-a-pancake.

Amazing guitar strings, great tone and a good feel to them. You might want to clean these because they get really dirty and it can ruin the coating.

Exactly what I was looking for. Gives clarity on a tuned down seven but is light enough at the high end to not rip fingers to bits on leads.

All comparisons/descriptions are in the context of my guitar (alder body, maple/pau ferro neck with SS frets, hard-tail bridge). I've been using Stringjoy strings for a while now (freaking fantastic by the way, as customizable as you could want gauge-wise) which are very full and lively (lots of harmonics, plenty of mids and they feel amazing for strings made of standard materials). The Cobalts, by direct comparison, have a lot less mids, around the same amount of low end and a bit more presence on top. They jangle very well and would be great for a guitar/pickups that are a little clogged up in the midrange. The set I normally use has gauges very close to this set of cobalts, but the cobalts feel a bit more loose than I would have expected (a few reviews I read stated that, when questioned, the folks at EB said that they're made with a slightly smaller core wire and that's fairly easy to see when inspecting the ball end during installation). They feel a bit rougher than what I'm used to, but they aren't uncomfortable by any means. I feel the greatest strength of this material is just how controlled/quiet they sound. Not just because of the slight scoop in the mids, but I don't hear the strings ring between the nut and tuners at all. Compared to standard slinkys and paradigms the cobalts are far and away my favorite. I'll be switching back to my Stringjoys in 10-14 days, but these are great strings that I could see many applications for.

se sei un old school che usa ancora la sette corde come me e non è passato alla otto corde come i nuovi tamarri della chitarra fermati e leggi qui. Ero un po' scettico per questo prodotto cobalt, sia per il prezzo sia per le recensioni mirabolanti. pero provandole e registrando il suono è realmente piu cristallino, ottime per il suono djent di Meshuggah e simili, molto dleng dleng. Mi sembrano anche piu resistenti. Prodotto promosso

Excelentes cuerdas. El sonido es adecuado.

Für mich als Amateur der "just vor fun" musiziert absolut okay!🎸🎶🤘🏼😎

Mantienen muy buena tensión en afinaciones bajas, las recomiendo.
