Yep. Been using these exact string for 40 years plus. Sure I have sampled other brands and weights along the way but these Super Slinky strings are just the best.

Ernie Ball Strings Are #1
My LTD EC1000 originally came with 10-46 gauge strings, D'Addario, which was fine but after playing them for about a month I decided I wanted lower gauge strings and I wanted Ernie Ball. Ive had great success with Ernie Ball strings before, they feel great, sound great and the price is right. I went with 9 gauge because I'm a beginner guitarist and I wanted lower tension for easier playing. I play Black Metal which is typically in standard tuning anyway or higher, its all about the melodies and harmonics, not bassy chugginess like other genres of Metal.
Funny side note, at first I bought a single back of these strings and when I was restringing my guitar I cut one of the strings way too short and made it impossible to use so I had to buy another pack of strings lol. Decided to get this 3 pack just incase I messed up again, doesnt hurt to have a couple back ups. Thank you, Sweetwater.
