Black coated nickel guitar strings allow you to play your electric guitar longer with the bright, full sound you crave. Gauges: .010 .013 .017 .026 .036 .046.

The G and D string kept a slippin and a sliding out of the locking tuner. When I did finally get them to hold the D string snapped at the tuning peg after the first bend. I replaced it with an Ernie Ball D string which of course worked as it should. However, the G string would not stay in tune and had to be replaced. All the black diamond strings were replaced after a few hours of rehearsal. In my opinion, these are not good strings.
I've been using Ernie Ball Regular Slinks since I was playing and they always met my expectation and I ordered thee because of the color and I got them today and I put them on. I played Sweet Child and once I was done with the solo a lot of the black started to get scratched off from the G and mainly the B string, that was just one song, I cant imagine what would happen if I played it for hours. Overall I would not get the strings again, Ernie Ball Regular Slinks last for a month or 2 and they are the most reliable stings I have ever played. Only good thing about these strings are the tone it give the guitar, the black makes it a lot heavier.
I got these strings for my shecter with a floyd rose, if you stretch therm out properly while putting them on and aren't afraid to mess with some settings, these strings are BETTER then ernie balls. I play 3 - 4 hours a day and these strings lasted 3 months with that abuse without any tuning instability. i haven't used any other brand strings since i first got these in 2010. Great, great strings. CONS: the coating does tend to scratch off after a few days, but only were you pick and underneath the strings were the frets are. PROS: they bend REALLY well, but that's just due to the thickness.
