Pros & Cons

Pros

The super slinky paradigm strings do amazing in standard. They are nano coated and after playing these for about 30 days, have held up quite well. The strings are very stable, and i can strum as hard as i want and not worry about breaking a string.

Overall, they sound slightly more muted (not muted. With a better tensile strength and a better fatigue strength and using the erbieball super slinky's for so long and changing to the paradigm was a breeze.

You know you usually can't go wrong with ernie ball -- and these didn't disappoint. Rather than the silky smooth feel of standard slinkys, the feel has a distinct plastic feel.

The hybrid on all my electric guitars except for 1 gibson sg that is tunes to c# which i use a paradigm 11-54 for heavier musick. For me, tone-wise, these blow away the former d'addario strings. The sound is a perfect balance of feel and tone.

Cons

For the exuberant price they aren’t worth it. Not sure why as these are designed to be exceptionally durable. Within the 90 day warranty it states it can be void if broken due to wear and tear.
