GHS

collapse expand iconDescription

Gilmour uses gauges 10, 12, 16, 28, 38, and 48 on his Fender Stratocaster electric guitar.

David Gilmour's connection with GHS' Boomer series electric guitar strings goes back to 1979, when he started using them on Pink Floyd's "The Wall" project.

Excellent Strings

I have a Laguna LE322 and a Carvin eletric. I put these strings on the Laguna and I found them to be excellent strings. They keep their tune well, and they've lasted longer than I expected. Recommended!

Will probably stick with ernie ball.

Very dissapointing. New set. Actually 1st time I've tried these. 5th string unwound and broke while tuning before I even got to play.

    Have four electric guitars and the sound is excellent no matter which guitar I put the ghs David Gilmore strings on. Very clear and tones are great. Especially good when playing Pink Floyd songs! The strings last and never had one break when stringing. Just slowly bring the string into tune!

    Strings seem fine. Tone is clear and crisp. Not sure if I'll ever get the Gilmour sound, but I hope to get close. :)

  • Gilmour's Picture drew me in... the strings did the rest

    I've been reading reviews of these strings (customer and store's) for several years. Was never really sure whether to buy into the hype. For better of for worse, I finally took the plundge and tried a set. I'm 60 yrs old, 45 yrs playing gtr. I've used MANY types of strings over the years, through many types of amps. But when I slapped these babies on my 1974 Stratocaster (yes, black on black with maple neck - exactly like Gilmour's old one) the difference was immediate and profound!!! Smooth feel. Incredible sustain. Bends like butter. And the tone? Impeccable. Going from clean to dirty....it's amazing to keep that kind of tone between the two. Playing clean, straight into the amp, the tone is pristine - rich, smooth and sparkling. Plug it into the RATT peddle, NICE sustain, and they're fat and ballsy while still sounding smooth....exactly like David's tone! Believe the hype. The only thing I haven't covered yet is their durability (have had them on the Strat for about 2 weeks now). How long will they last between changes? Well I haven't see any complaints from other reviewers, so that's hopeful.

  • Will be used on my Tele, so far so good!!
