Description

Upgrade your sound with Ernie Ball Super Slinky RPS Nickel Wound electric guitar strings. These strings provide the world-renowned Slinky feel trusted by legends like Jimmy Page, Slash, and Eric Clapton, but with enhanced durability. The RPS technology features a patented brass wire winding tightly wrapped around the lock twist of the ball-end on the plain E, B, and G strings. This design helps minimize slippage and breakage at the ball-end, ensuring your guitar stays in tune better and the strings last longer than conventional plain strings. The wound strings (D, A, and low E) are constructed with nickel-plated steel wire wrapped around a tin-plated hex-shaped steel core wire for reliable performance. Whether you are playing heavy riffs or melodic leads, these 9-42 gauge strings offer the strength and stability required for professional play. Made in the USA, Ernie Ball RPS strings deliver the classic tone you love with improved construction for consistent reliability.
