GHS Boomers Electric Guitar Strings

GHS Boomers Electric Guitar Strings are GHS' most popular strings for electric guitar.
Roundwound, with nickel plated steel wrap. Designed for Heavy Metal, Rock, Country, Blues, and Pop styles.

GHS guitar strings are made on GHS' in-house string machines by their expert staff. Before they leave the shop, each string is meticulously inspected by hand.

Under high magnification, each string must pass a series of tests before it wears the GHS logo. Having been in the string business for 35 years, you can really hear their expertise and experience. It's no wonder GHS strings are played all over the world - from garages to 50,000 seat stadiums.

GHS strings are the music industry's choice whether you want a fat, bright tone or bluesy, warm, mellow sonics.

Subject:My all time favorite brand in strings!
Quality: anytime I have bought GHS strings I have always got my moneys worth.
Reliability: I tried almost every kind of strings there is and every time I always come back to GHS they feel great and sound fresh for a good while. I have floyds on all of my guitars and I love the harmonics these strings provide and Ive yet to pop a string with this brand.
Overall: GHS rules! they make alot of different size strings for different style players.
Playability and Feel: I really like the TNT series of strings their thick and give a chunky tone but play like 9s.
Tone: my guitar has seymoure duncan blackouts pickups and I love the tone from these strings!
Finish: I play every day maybe 5 or 6 hours a day and weekends all day and it takes a long time to ware these strings out!
Action: They are always arranged nicly in the packs but I only buy them in individual packs I tried the whole bulk pack and it sucks.
Skill Level: Semi-Pro
Do you own this product?: yes I love these strings

Subject:The best!!
Quality: Most dependable strings I've ever used. Great tone, great feel. Buy individual sets!
Reliability: No other string I've tried lasts longer than GHS at a great price. Buy individual sets!
Overall: Overall, great strings! However, If they're going to make a package of 3 sets, package them as 3 individual sets, or at least by individual strings... NOT 3 strings in one envelope. D'Addario has the best packaging, but not the greatest strings. I hope GHS follows in the packaging department. Buy individual sets!
Playability and Feel: N/A
Tone: Very nice tone, a little bright, but you can compensate for that.

Subject:best strings ever
Quality: I've used these strings for atleast 5 or more years now. I love the way they sound and feel.Their not expensive either, and you get your money's worth.
Reliability: These strings can take a beating,I usually get 2 hours everyday to play after work. Only broke a string after about a month of playing on the same set.
Overall: I don't use any other brand for electric.
Playability and Feel: I like 9s and 10s. I keep one guitar with 9s and the other with 10s. I tried the TNT series but didn't really care that much for them.
Tone: nice tone.

Subject:BEWARE! It's not really a 3 pack. it's a stupidly packaged 18-pack.
Quality: I am a guitar teacher and every Christmas I give my students little things like strings, picks, guitar care stuff. I bought a LOT of these three packs thinking there were three actual sets of guitar strings.. you know, three individual PACKAGES. NOPE! inside the paperboard carton are six envelopes.. each containing 3 strings. Who in the heck even uses strings in this manner? you can't just pull out one string.. you have to pull them all out, and wind up the other two and try to put them back in the envelope. THis is a STUPID way to package strings, and useless to anybody..Unless you are stringing THREE GUITARS AT THE SAME TIME!!! I can't hand these sets out to my students like this. and American Musical won't take them back, as is their policy on strings... What the hell? Don't buy this 3 pack.. get 3 individual sets instead.
Reliability: i gave it a 1 for overall.. because of the stupid and misleading way it was presented on the website.. and on the package itself.. 3-pack?? nope.. try 18pack.. 18 individual strings contained in 6 envelopes. stupid.
Overall: i have used ghs for years.. but this packaging is a joke..
Playability and Feel: groovy

Overall: I have used GHS strings for decades. GHS is a reliable, established company that stands behind its products completely, and its products are superior guitar strings at amongst the lowest prices to be had. Few if any companies can beat that combination. In many -- maybe too many -- years of playing, I naturally have tried any number of other brand strings, yet none even have tempted me to switch from GHS. They always feel and play well, they last long, they maintain their tone and their shelf life is literally years. I could not ask for better guitar strings, especially at such a low cost, and I could not ask more of this guitar string industry leader.
