The Ernie Ball 2215 Nickel Skinny Top/Heavy Bottom Electric Guitar Strings 6-Pack are an innovative set that combines the brightness of lighter top strings with the thickness of heavier bottom strings for a hybrid gauge that produces balanced, versatile tone and improved intonation.

The custom alloy used in these nickel-wound strings is specifically designed for electric guitar and made to exacting standards, ensuring consistent tone and long-lasting performance through extensive playing. The Ernie Ball 3215 strings are precision manufactured to meet the needs of musicians seeking to explore new creative possibilities from their instrument.

Skinny top strings for melodic clarity

The three lightest strings in this set, the .010, .013 and .017, have a lighter gauge more suitable for intricate soloing, resulting in a crisp, articulate tone when playing higher frets. The lighter top strings make it easy to execute hammer-ons, pull-offs and string bending, allowing musicians to achieve a bright, singing lead tone.

Heavy bottom strings for powerful rhythm

In contrast, the three lowest strings—.030, .042 and .052—have a heavier bottom end suitable for aggressive power chords and chunky rhythm playing. The thicker bottom strings produce deep, driving tones with full low-end resonance, perfect for hard rock and metal. Together with the lighter top strings, this hybrid set offers the best of both worlds for versatile players.

Built to last through intense performances

All Ernie Ball electric guitar strings are precision manufactured in the USA from the highest quality materials to meet the needs of professional musicians around the world. The nickel-plated steel wrap wire is tightly wound around a hex-shaped tin-plated high-carbon steel core for maximum resonance, sustain and tuning stability. These long-lasting strings can withstand the rigors of frequent playing, touring and recording while maintaining tone and feel.
