Ernie Ball John Mayer Silver Slinky Electric Guitar Strings 10.5–47 (3 Pack Collector's Tin)
A signature feel, refined for players who live in the details.
Developed in collaboration with John Mayer, these Silver Slinky strings sit in the sweet spot between 10s and 11s, offering a more controlled, expressive playing experience without the stiffness of heavier gauges.
Designed with precise core-to-wrap ratios and a unique 10.5–47 gauge, they deliver a balanced tension that responds beautifully to touch. Whether you're playing clean, pushing edge-of-breakup tones, or leaning into lead work, these strings give you more control over dynamics and feel.
Packaged in a limited-edition collector's tin, this 3-pack is built for players who want consistency, nuance, and a slightly more refined take on the classic Slinky formula.
