Ernie Ball: championing string design since 1962
When Ernie Ball released his first set of Rock N Roll guitar strings in 1962, the goal was simple: to provide custom string sets for newcomer musicians and gauge-particular players. Little did he know that this mindset would lead to further innovation and diversification, with not only electric guitar string sets but also strings for bass and acoustic guitar. By the turn of the century, Ernie Ball’s unwavering commitment to contemporary musicians resulted in the introduction of several new string series. Notable among these were Ernie Ball’s acoustic Earthwood strings and the widely popular Slinky family of strings. Today, Ernie Ball strings maintain their iconic status as a go-to choice for guitarists and bassists worldwide, and for good reason. Built to maintain stable performance, tone, and comfort in the face of any playing situation, a fresh pack of Ernie Ball strings doesn’t just guarantee great tone — it symbolizes a legacy of musical innovation and creativity.
