Pros & Cons

Pros

Having a six pack of e strings around is a life saver. If during your string change you wind up snapping your high e string you have to get another complete set.

Ernie ball strings are of nothing less than high quality and dependability. Good output and durability. People putting up low reviews due to their own failure to properly read details is laughable.

very convenient to have all the same gauge strings in one package. I'm glad ernie ball makes individual string guage sets of a specific guage. As long as they're the same string gauge i know that no matter what my tone is going to sound like my tone!

Packaging/appearance


009 6-pack: very convenient to have all the same gauge strings in one package.


The envelopes each string is in is identical to the envelopes included in ernie ball super slinkey string set.

Competitiveness
